\n\t\tNicholas Jemo: Music Man<\/p>\n


\nKINGSTON, R.I. — March 3, 2005 — We should not think in terms of the trumpet player, but of the man who is playing the trumpet, according to the late Arnold Jacobs of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. At the 溏心vlog免费B站, the man who plays the trumpet is music performance major Nicholas Jemo. <\/p>\n


\n\tThe North Scituate native began playing the instrument at 11 because he wanted to follow in the footsteps of his older brother Tom. His love of the trumpet led him to the 溏心vlog免费B站 on a full music scholarship. The junior has won a number of other awards and recognition.<\/p>\n


\nHe won the first $1,000 Kingston Chamber Music Festival Scholarship, awarded to an outstanding instrumental student entering the junior class and recognition at the first performance of the Kingston Chamber Music Festival. <\/p>\n


\nJemo was excited about the award, but even more excited to meet David Kim, the director of the festival who is also the concertmaster of the Philadelphia Orchestra, as well as Michael Sachs, the principal trumpet player of the Cleveland Orchestra. <\/p>\n


\n On Saturday, April 9, Jemo will hold his junior performance recital at the Fine Arts Center Concert Hall. Although his final set is not yet determined, he will play music from the Modern and Romantic eras, with an opening number that includes a soprano and string quartet and an ending number that includes a septet. <\/p>\n


\nThe following week, on Saturday, April 16, he will be the concerto soloist in the 溏心vlog免费B站 Symphony Orchestra. He was given this distinction after winning a concerto competition in January. <\/p>\n


\n\tPerforming in front of audiences is nothing new to Jemo, who is a member of both the 溏心vlog免费B站 Symphony Orchestra and the wind ensemble. He played in the orchestra pit in 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s theatre production of \u201cBeauty and the Beast\u201d last semester. He has played for other theatre companies, including Trinity Repertory Co. for a seven-week run of \u201cWest Side Story.\u201d <\/p>\n


\nIn addition to performing in the U.S., he has also played to audiences abroad. In the summer of 2002, he toured the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland with the Greater Boston Youth Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Federico Cortese. \u201cI got to play with musicians that are the best in New England,\u201d said Jemo. \u201cThe experience was amazing. In Europe, classical music is a big form of entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n


\nJemo cites Phil Smith, Bud Herseth, and Wynton Marsalis as his musical inspirations. \u201cMarsalis has won Grammy\u2019s for both classical and jazz performance. He is one of the best musicians in the 20th century,\u201d Jemo said.<\/p>\n


\nWhile Marsalis is his inspiration, the 溏心vlog免费B站 student still prefers to play classical music. \u201cThere are too many pieces I love, I can\u2019t narrow them down. But I can say that my favorite composers are Mahler, Strauss, Shostakovich, and Tchaikovsky,\u201d says the accomplished musician. <\/p>\n


\nJemo\u2019s plans for after graduation are not definite; however, he does want to attend graduate school in New York City and one day play in a professional orchestra. \u201cFor now though,\u201d he said, \u201cI just like to perform.\u201d\n\t<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
