Symphonic Winds offer concert on Nov. 30

November 12, 2007

Georgia Southern University’s Symphonic Wind Ensemble and Wind Symphony will present a concert Friday, Nov. 30, at 7:30 p.m. in the Performing Arts Center. The concert is free and open to the public.

The Nov. 30 performance will include an eclectic mix of compositions including ‘The Dream of Oenghus,” by German composer, Rolf Rudin; ‘Toledo,” by American composer, Bruce Carlson; and ‘Scenes from The Louvre,'” by American composer Norman Dello Joio.

The 45-member Symphonic Wind Ensemble and 60-member Wind Symphony are the two major concert bands open to all Georgia Southern student musicians. The groups perform music as traditional as a John Philip Sousa march and as edgy as the music of Frank Zappa. The ensembles are conducted by Robert Dunham, Director of Bands at Georgia Southern University.
