Contest winner headed to faculty concert

Clarinettist Trevor Pittman is one of the featured performers during the School of Music faculty concert, Saturday at Assumption University Chapel.

Sylvia Verhaegen-Tingle, a computing consultant in Information Technology Services, laboratory safety coordinator in the Chemical Control Centre, won yesterday’s DailyNews contest and two tickets to the faculty concert “Chamber Ensembles and Electronics,” Saturday, February 11, at 7:30 p.m. in Assumption University Chapel.

Her name was drawn from all respondents who correctly identified CBC Radio 2 as the broadcaster who will air a recording of the concert, music professor Brent Lee as a composer whose work will be featured on the program, and Patrick Carrabré’s Orpheus Drones for piano and electronics as the piece Megumi Masaki will perform.
