The clarinet duo Tosca Duo will present a recital at 8 p.m. on Sept. 26 in the Snyder Recital Hall in Presser Hall on the campus of Ohio Northern University in Ada. The concert is presented by the ONU Department of Music.
Tosca Duo was founded in 2007 and consists of Lynn Musco, currently in her 28th year as professor of clarinet and coordinator of woodwind studies at Stetson University in Florida, and Shawn L. Copeland, who joined the faculty of the Lionel Hampton School of Music at the University of Idaho in 2014 as the teacher of clarinet, Alexander technique and entrepreneurship.
Known for its singular sound, Tosca Duo showcases the flexibility and variety of colors unique to the clarinet by performing works from varying time periods and commissioning new works for pairs of clarinets. The duo has recently completed two recording projects, “Tosca Duo” and “Dark Matter,” which will be released this fall.
