Guest artist Chris Hotaling presents a recital on Tuesday, March 2 at 7:30 p.m. in Guzzetta Recital Hall. This event is free and open to the public.
An active pedagogue and performer, Christopher Hotaling employs elements from his background in vocal performance in his approach to teaching and playing all low brass instruments. He believes strongly in the importance of lyrical, songlike playing as a means of promoting growth in his students, and he enjoys incorporating vocal repertoire in lessons and performances. In 2020, he was invited to the Northeast Regional Tuba Euphonium Conference to present a lecture entitled Accessing the Vocal Repertoire and its Pedagogical Benefits, and gave a lecture titled Doubling: Resources & Techniques for Teaching and Learning at the 2020 Virtual Trombone Workshop. In his current appointment as Adjunct Professor of Tuba at SUNY Fredonia’s School of Music, Chris teaches weekly lessons to all tuba majors, directs the Fredonia Tuba-Euphonium Ensemble, and teaches courses related to low brass teaching and pedagogy.
