In celebration of our Fortieth Anniversary, we\u2019re honoring a cherished Festival tradition by welcoming not one, but two exceptional guest artists to the stage. Anniversary years hold a special place in our history, and this tradition underscores our commitment to delivering unforgettable musical experiences that honor the past while inspiring the future. This milestone event features Brazilian duo Dr. Fernando Deddos (euphonium) and Albert Khattar (tuba), who are appearing together to showcase the rich musical traditions and vibrant artistry of Brazil. Their collaboration highlights the dynamic possibilities of the tuba and euphonium, offering twice the artistry, twice the inspiration, and twice the celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Dr. Fernando Deddos<\/strong> acts globally as a composer, performer, and professor. Currently, he serves as a full-time professor at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte State (UFRN\/Brazil). Dr. Deddos recorded the first euphonium album in Brazil, EuFonium Brasileiro, which received the International Tuba &amp; Euphonium Association\u2019s (ITEA) award for excellence in recording. In addition to his participation in interdisciplinary, chamber, and Brazilian popular music projects, he frequently acts as a guest artist and professor at ensembles, international festivals, and conferences. In 2020, he performed his own Concerto for Euphonium with the U.S. Army Symphony Orchestra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.falconefestival.org\/website_b1f48886\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Fernando-Deddos-683x1024.webp?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Fernando Deddos, 2025 Guest Euphonium Artist for the Leonard Falcone International Euphonium &amp; Tuba Festival\" class=\"wp-image-819\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/falconefestival.org\/website_b1f48886\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Fernando-Deddos.webp?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/falconefestival.org\/website_b1f48886\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Fernando-Deddos.webp?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/falconefestival.org\/website_b1f48886\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Fernando-Deddos.webp?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/falconefestival.org\/website_b1f48886\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Fernando-Deddos.webp?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Fernando Deddos, 2025 Guest Euphonium Artist for the Leonard Falcone International Euphonium &amp; Tuba Festival<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Dr. Deddos\u2019s compositions have been performed and recorded worldwide.
