About the Artist
Trumpeter Aaron Hodgson is an accomplished solo, chamber and orchestral musician, praised for his “outstanding lyrical trumpet playing” (Hartford Courant). A prize-winner in the 2008 OSM Standard Life Competition, Aaron has been broadcast nationally as a soloist by CBC Radio’s The Signal. His orchestral performances include appearances with the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra and l’Orchestre de la Francophonie, led by conductors such as Neeme Järvi, Sir Neville Marriner, and Helmuth Rilling. He can be heard on Naxos and Analekta records as principal trumpet for recordings of Bach’s Magnificat, Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique, and Beethoven’s complete symphonies. Committed to expanding the trumpet’s capabilities and audiences, Aaron is a co-founder of the Reveille Trumpet Collective. Reveille has presented engaging, multimedia performances at the Banff Centre and the Sound Symposium Festival, and contributed to the commissioning of many new solo and chamber works for trumpet. Aaron joined the faculty of Memorial University of Newfoundland in the fall of 2008.
This performance is in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Musical Arts degree.
