Glenn Korff School of Music events this week will feature Hans Sturm, professor of double bass, and Jackie Allen, an award-winning jazz vocalist, in a 7:30 p.m. Oct. 20 recital in Westbrook Music Building. The performance is free and open to the public.
The recital, “Bass Meets Voice,” will be presented in two parts. The first half will include duo versions of original compositions that Sturm wrote for Allen, who is also his wife. The compositions are featured on Allen’s new album, “Rose Fingered Dawn.” The other half of the recital will include a short set of jazz standards that include compositions by Rodgers and Hammerstein and Duke Ellington with a completely inappropriate seasonal theme of spring.
