  Jay Chen, Principal Trumpet in the Portland Opera Orchestra and professor at Willamette University, is a native of Chengdu, from the Sichuan Province of China, 50 miles from the epicenter of the earthquake. Chen will speak about the disaster in China and how it has affected people’s lives, and show compelling slides of the disaster accompanied by brass ensemble music and one timpanist. All funds will go to the American Red Cross for dispersal to earthquake victims.
