Coronavirus numbers in Florida are frightening, and as Music Week, Creative Loafing Tampa Bay’s weekly preview of in-person concerts ramps back up, we’ll keep trying to highlight different virtual options for fans of the local music scene.

This one next Thursday, Oct. 12 at 12:30 p.m. takes viewers to the University of South Florida where the school’s trombone choir and octet will work through two compositions: 1980’s “Seven Bagatelles for 12 Trombones” by Hungarian composer Hidas Frigyes and a newer piece, “Reflection & Celebration” by David F.
