He will be joined by pianist Sara Lee and fellow flutists Lauren Dunsmore and Mitchell Proper interpreting works composed by flutists.
Featured on the program will be works by Paris Conservatory flute professors Jean-Louis Tulou, Philippe Gaubert and Paul Taffanel.
Dunsmore and Proper also will collaborate with Dobbs in performing a trio by one of Tulou’s students, Eugène Walckiers. The program will conclude with a work by Benjamin Godard, who was not a flutist, but whose “Suite de Trois Morceaux” is a favorite among flutists.
“Though not to the extent of pianists/composers, the flute possesses a rich repertoire of works created by gifted flutists, and it’s intriguing to monitor the evolution of musical expression on the flute through these skillfully crafted pieces,” Dobbs said.
The program is free and open to the public.
