Grosse Ile Quintet to perform free MLK concert at University Hospital

The Grosse Ile Quintet is coming to Michigan Medicine on Thursday.

In celebration of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birthday, the Grosse Ile Quintet will present a program in honor of his life and legacy.

With nearly 200 years of combined solo, teaching and orchestral experience, the quintet is comprised of Carole Scott, flute; Nancy Gruits, oboe; Lisa Dills, clarinet; Dianne Newberry, French horn; and Heather Hartwick-Gladden, bassoon.

Since its founding in 2016, the quintet is constantly coming up with new and interactive ways to present their arrangements of music from a variety of genres: traditional folk music, movie themes, classical music and pop.

Check out the quintet at a free concert on Thursday at Michigan Medicine!
