Professional Activities

Craig Sylvern attended the 2008 Cardinal Saxophone Workshop at the University of Louisville this past July. The workshop attracts professional and student musicians from across the country and includes performances by individuals, chamber groups, and a large ensemble made up of all the participants. This year’s large ensemble included saxophones from the tiny sopranino to the monstrous contrabasso. Craig participated in several performances, one of which included the world premiere of Dance for Two Tenor Saxophones and Piano, a piece written for him by Walter S. Hartley.
