The Wind Symphony will present a concert with the South Harrison High School Concert Band this month. It is free and open to the public.

The Wind Symphony will perform works, including Carol Brittin Chambers’ “Dances for the Muse, Terpsichore;” Percy Aldridge Grainger’s “Colonial Song,” which will feature Northwest student Coy Kirby as a guest conductor; Brett William Dietz’s “Concerto for Marimba and Wind Orchestra, Mvt. 2,” which will feature Alderman, the conductor of Northwest’s Percussion Ensemble; and Alfred Reed’s “Russian Christmas Music.”

The South Harrison High School Concert Band will perform works, including Kevin Day’s “Rocketship!,” Warren Benson’s “Night Song” and Samuel Hazo’s “Novo Lenio.”

Directed by Northwest alumnus William Licop, the South Harrison High School Concert Band will join the Northwest Wind Symphony to play Albert E. Kelly’s “Arnhem March.”

The Northwest Wind Symphony is the University’s premier wind ensemble and performs the best standard selections from all styles and periods, in addition to recent repertoire for wind bands.
