Hello and thank you so much for coming to my recital. This is the first recital I am performing post pandemic and two children. I wanted to play pieces I am very passionate about and that I simply love to play. I am an early music specialist and will be sharing several different horns with you tonight. Thank you again for coming and I hope this performance may spark new interest in early music.
ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
Sadie Glass began experimenting with the natural horn during her undergraduate degree at the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point. Like many horn players, she started noodling around on a “valve-ectomy” horn that was collecting dust in an instrument closet. Encouraged by her teacher, Patrick Miles, she attended workshops where she studied with some of the leading early horn specialists including a particularly memorable coaching with Hermann Baumann at the Kendall Betts Horn Camp (KBHC) in New Hampshire. Sadie is now the natural horn faculty member herself at KBHC and teaches a new generation of early horn players.
Recognized for her “polished tone,” Sadie Glass is an active educator and performer in the San Francisco Bay Area. Sadie is a tenured member of the Monterey Symphony and has performed with many orchestras throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, including the San Francisco Symphony, Stockton Symphony, Marin Symphony, and Sacramento Philharmonic and Opera. Sadie performs as a soloist and orchestral hornist with period-instrument ensembles across North America, including Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, Portland Baroque Orchestra, Musica Angelica Baroque Orchestra, Bach Collegium San Diego, Pacific Baroque Orchestra, Valley of the Moon Music Festival, and Seattle Baroque Orchestra. Her recent solo appearances include performing Mozart’s Horn Concerto No. 1 with the horn quartet Quadre (2022), Telemann’s Double Horn Concerto, TWV 52:Es1, with the Seattle Baroque Orchestra (2023), and Ligeti’s Hamburg Concerto with the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign’s Modern Ensemble (2023).
As an educator, Sadie is on faculty at the University of the Pacific Conservatory of Music in Stockton, California, where she teaches modern and historic horn lessons, music fundamentals, coaches student ensembles, is the faculty advisor of the Pacific Brass Society, and is a member of the Pacific Arts Woodwind Quintet. Sadie has also held teaching positions at Pacific Union College, Las Positas College, Chabot College, and El Sistema music programs. Outside of music, Sadie enjoys spending time with her family, is a DIY enthusiast and a Disney vacation planning expert, and loves to travel.
