Join musicians, Chuck Seipp, on trumpet, and Randall Sheets, on organ and piano, in concert for an afternoon of virtuostic, entertaining, patriotic, and inspirational music.
This special concert will highlight the amazing power and beauty of the magnificent organ often referred to as “the king of instruments”, coupled with the brilliant tone of the trumpet, “the instrument of Kings.”
The performance will take place at First United Methodist Church, 101 East First North Street, Morristown on Sunday, September 24, 2023, at 4 p.m.
Both musicians from Washington, D.C. are accomplished, seasoned performers; combined, their artistry resonates with the majesty and opulence of this music genre.
Randall Sheets is recently retired Ceremonial Organist for Arlington National Cemetery. Chuck Seipp is retired trumpeter from The United States Army Band, “Pershing’s Own”, in Washington, D.C.
The Seipp/Sheets Duo program will feature several works written and arranged for them with unique performance enhancements through video presentations to all selections.
Enjoy an entertaining program of music by Bach, Vivaldi, Handel, Mussorgsky, Gershwin and Freddie Mercury. Six trumpets bring flare and fun to the “Carnival of Venice”, be mesmerized by flourishes and the beauty of “Rhapsody in Blue”, captivated with the power demonstrated in Widor’s “Toccata” for solo organ, be moved by engaging video presentations, sing along to the greatest rock song of all time, an out-of-this-world silent movie, and special tributes to responders and veterans, this will be a memorable concert for all ages.
