On Sunday, Sept. 30, 2018, beginning at 4 p.m., expect the Howard Performing Arts Center to reverberate with beautiful music, as Andrews University hosts Aleksandra Kemble in the first Sunday Music Series of the academic year.

Aleksandra Kemble came to the U.S. in 2002. She studied at the Chopin Academy of Music in Warsaw, Poland, where she obtained her master's degree in flute performance. She continued her studies in the United States receiving both “Artist” and “Performer” Diplomas from Indiana University.

Kemble expanded her musical knowledge and experience by attending master classes throughout Europe (Austria, Holland, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia) and is now the principal flutist with the Elkhart Symphony. She has also appeared regularly with the Southwest Michigan Symphony, LaPorte Symphony Orchestra, Symphony of the Lakes, Kalamazoo Philharmonia and has frequently been invited to play at the Round Barn Theater in Nappanee, Indiana.

Kemble received her Suzuki training and certification in “Every Child Can,” a course on the Suzuki philosophy and its application to education and Suzuki teaching, from the Suzuki Association of the Greater Washington Area in Virginia and is now a certified Suzuki teacher. She maintains a private flute studio in her home in Mishawaka and continues to spread her knowledge and experience by teaching at many local schools throughout the community. Kemble is also an adjunct professor at Andrews University.

Kemble will be accompanied by Mariah Boucher on the piano and will perform Jirí Čart’s “Sonata for flute and piano in E Major,” Theobald Boehm’s “Grande Polonaise for flute and piano, Op. 16,” Philippe Gaubert’s “Ballade,” Pavol Šimai’s “Sonatina for flute and piano,” and Ian Clarke’s “Zoomtube” for flute solo.

Come and share an afternoon of new and classic works for the flute! All are welcome to attend.
