Fright Night is looming in the dark...

If you need a bit of a chill to run down your musical neck then tune into a special 'Tubaween' concert later this evening given by the ghoulish tuba and euphonium players of the University of North Texas.

Halloween
  Tune in during the darkest hours to enjoy a musical fright...

If you are looking for a late, late night Halloween fright then make sure you tune into a special 'Tubaween' musical treat from the Tuba and Euphonium players of the University of North Texas.

The 40 minute on-line concert premieres on YouTube (and Facebook) at 1.00am (8.00pm Dallas): https://youtu.be/ZpyObbU_vGk

Tradition

David Childs who oversees the students and directs the performance told 4BR: "As COVID-19 hasn't allowed them to hold their usual ensemble rehearsals, they have decided to produce something that can be enjoyed on-line — keeping up a Halloween tradition that was first started by my predecessor, Dr. Brian Bowan, 20 years ago.

We hope everyone enjoys it — with the lights on or off!"
