Clarinetist David Gresham, who is in his fourth year as an assistant
professor in the School of Music at Illinois State University, will present
a free recital at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 10, in Kemp Recital Hall.
The recital is part of the Charles W. Bolen Faculty Recital Series.
Gresham's off-campus activities include recitals, chamber concerts and master classes both locally and around the U.S. and abroad. Recent solo and chamber concert tours have taken him to such disparate places as Murray, Ky.; New York City; London; Berlin; Tokyo; Almaty, Kazakstan; Dushanbe, Tajikistan; and Ulaan Baator in Mongolia.
Gresham plays in the respected New York based contemporary chamber music group Continuum, plays bass clarinet in the Peoria Symphony and gives concerts with flutist Kim Risinger in their newly formed ensemble, Difference Tones. Gresham recorded the Mozart clarinet concerto with the Kiev Camerata and his latest recording of David Maslanka's "Desert Roads" for clarinet and band with the ISU Wind Symphony will be released soon on Albany Records.
