Born in 1998, Aaron Akugbo previously introduced himself here in 2021 with the Connaught Brass Ensemble, and since he is also principal trumpet of the Chineke! Orchestra, he will be heard once again in the closing concert on 11 September. But this son of a Nigerian father and a Scottish mother makes his major debut as a soloist with this concert. His program is finely balanced in terms of diversity. Two female composers are featured: the African American, late Romantic Florence Price and the British contemporary Sally Beamish. The Baroque master Telemann is juxtaposed with a world premiere by Black artist Joy Guidry, and the Broadway ballad My Funny Valentine meets a sonata by the Viennese Karl Pilss inspired by Richard Strauss. Aaron Akugbo attended masterclasses by Reinhold Friedrich and Tine Thing Helseth, was awarded a special prize in the 2019 Girolamo Fantini Trumpet Competition, and made his debut at London’s Royal Festival Hall in 2020 performing Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto.
