The brothers of Phi Mu Alpha performed an interesting and delightful recital in the Fulton Theatre.

Dwight Dodd, a chapter alumnus who performed Etude No. 32 on the Euphonium, said that the purpose of the sinfonia was to foster musicianship among its members. He also thanked the chapter for letting him be a part of their musicianship.

The recital began with the Phi Mu Alpha Choir singing A Sinfonia Anthem and Hail Sinfonia. At that time, they dedicated the recital to professors who had supported them.

The first duo, Prelude and Allegro performed by William Burdette and Scott Roberts, was a pleasant combination of the piano and saxophone.

Gary Nichols performed a moving piece on the piano which was entitled Song for Phillip. Nichols wrote the song in memory of his dear friend Phillip Ralston who passed away in 2001.

“The brotherly unity in music as well as in friendship was very touching,” said Joel Malin, a freshman Music major from South Fulton.

After a brief intermission, the recital started back with a beautiful rendition of a Mozart piece. Then, five musicians performed an upbeat piece entitled A Little Day Music. A Little Day Music was a collaborative piece of bass guitar, drums, vibraphone, saxophone and trombone.

To end the recital, the Phi Mu Alpha Choir performed The Red and Black and Parting Song. The members of the Phi Mu Alpha Choir were joined by the attending alumni in the Parting Song.

“This is an excellent opportunity for UTM students to experience the musical talents of their peers,” said Susan Bailey, freshman Nursing major from Murfreesboro.
