OLLI Presentation: Tour of the Orchestra - From Manuscript to Score

Presented by THSO Fourth Horn, Layne Anspach

Over the past 3 years, Layne Anspach has had the pleasure of working with a mostly undiscovered Franz Strauss horn concerto manuscript and has worked tirelessly to produce a new published score in coordination with the Strauss Estate. Join us as Layne walks us through the process of taking a manuscript to a fully published piece purchased by conductors and musicians. Reading a manuscript and interpreting what the composer originally wrote in their own handwriting is not always easy! Learn about how many lingering artistic decisions are made during score creation, particularly when the composer is not around to ask clarifying questions.

Presentation will be presented via Zoom but attendees will be able to attend an in-person presentation through OLLI. Registration available for Osher Lifelong Learning Institute members. Learn more about OLLI at https://www.indstate.edu/community-engagement/olli.
