McCutcheon Honors Recital

1/26/2015 at 7:30 pm
Magale Recital Hall
Natchitoches, Louisiana


               Each year the recital participants are chosen by the applied faculty
               in their respective areas as the most outstanding based on their fall
               juries.  The School of Creative and Performing Arts presented the
               first “Honors Recital” in 1998.

               In 2002, The recital was re-named in honor of Jim McCutcheon,
               a retired band teacher,  who was active in instrument repair at NSU.   
               Because Mr. McCutcheon wanted to do something to recognize
               outstanding student performance here at NSU, he began offering
               a financial prize to those students selected to perform on the recital. 
               After his death, his wife, Mrs. Jo Lapeyrouse, chose to continue this              
  tradition and has funded a scholarship in his name.

Program includes: 

Concerto No, 1 in F# minor . . . . Giovanni Bottesini 
I. Allegro Moderato                 (1821-1889)



Carlos Gomez Garcia, double bass
Elena Bogaczova, piano
