Stop by to hear a concert by a talented family of musicians – violinist Shannon Nance, trumpeter Wes Nance, and their daughter Brooke, who plays horn.

WXXI and Hochstein School of Music and Dance present Shannon, Wesley, and Brooke Nance on Wednesday April 10th at 12:10 p.m. on Classical 91.5, 90.3, and streaming online at wxxi.org.


Violinist Shannon Nance and trumpeter Wesley Nance are both members of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra and alums of the Eastman School of Music. For Live from Hochstein's Family Concert, they team up with their daughter, horn-player Brook Nance, and pianist Alisa Curlee, play "a quartet of trios." Their program includes music by Johannes Brahms and Evan Henry (a Rochester native and now a student at the Eastman School of Music). 

Hosted by Classical 91.5's Mona Seghatoleslami, Live from Hochstein is the longest running live broadcast concert series in Western New York.
