Get ready for a monster mash-up of music and scares as UO School of Music and Dance presents the Halloween SpookTastic! low brass concert.

The annual event, now in its fourth year, will take place Sunday, Oct. 26. The performance will be held in Aasen-Hull Hall in the Frohnmayer Music Building starting at 6:30 p.m.

The players will perform selections from Jack Wilds’ Leviathan, Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet and J.S. Bach’s Toccata and Fugue, all while wearing Halloween costumes. The UO Trombone Choir, Tuba-Euphonium Ensemble and Apocalyptic Brass Ensemble will be playing the spooky, but family friendly, music.

“The SpookTastic! event is an excellent opportunity for parents to introduce their children to classical music and to low brass instruments,” UO trombone professor Henry Henniger said. “We’re excited to top last year’s costumes.”

Henniger, it should be noted, dressed as He-Man, master of the universe, in 2012. He didn’t reveal what costume he might pull out this year.
