Dr. Quincy Dobbs, accordion & Steven Prevett, guitar
Music of the Night
Steven Prevett, classical guitar, and Dr. Quincy Dobbs, accordion, explore nocturnes and incidental music for this exciting and unexpected instrumental combination. The program will include works from the Romantic Musical period to the present day. Nocturnes provide the listener with a constant theme in every creature's life: the setting of the sun and life in the darkness until it is morning once again. Throughout the years, composers have created music that evokes the mystery of this darkness, the moon, and the loneliness that is sometimes felt while wandering during the night.
