The SUNY Fredonia Wind Ensemble will present its final concert of the year on Saturday, April 26.
The event, slated for 8 p.m. in Harry A. King Concert Hall at SUNY Fredonia, will feature the 鈥淎merican Overture鈥 by Ralph Jenkins, 鈥淧romise of the Living鈥 by Aaron Copland arranged by Kenneth Singleton, 鈥淪ymphonies of Wind Instruments鈥 by Igor Stravinsky, and 鈥淗ymn for the Innocent鈥 by Julie Giroux. The concert will close with the epic 鈥淲inds of Nagual鈥 by Michael Colgrass.
The Colgrass work is based on the writings of Carlos Castaneda who wrote the first three books of his series while a graduate student at the University of California, Los Angeles.
The student music performing group recently received international recognition by the British Broadcasting Corporation, a feat rarely accomplished by a collegiate Wind Ensemble, noted Conductor Paula Holcomb.
The free concert is also offered on livestream via the School of Music website.
