As many of you know, we are performing next week Thursday, Dec. 18 @ 4:45 pm in the W375E ballroom at The Midwest Clinic. Here are some previews of our program!
Boston Brass will be performing with us on the always amazing Malaguena! In addition, we are very excited to be performing some great new works including one by our own Kent Boulton called Echoes of the Grand - it is just beautiful. Another really cool rip-roarin' piece is To Pull Out All the Stops by Franklin D. Hansen! We have a really fun march by Randall Standridge called Stampede March, an excellent piece called Nightmare Variations on the Holst Suites by Michael Mikulka - the name says it ALL!! We are also playing Burn After Reading by Andrew Perkins, Embers of the Ancient Realms by Michele Fernandez, Gravity by Julie Giroux and a variety of other great band literature.
