Event Description
Carnegie Mellon Wind Ensemble
George Vosburgh and Thomas Thompson, Co-Directors
Stephen Story, Associate Director
Under the direction of George Vosburgh and Thomas Thompson, the Carnegie Mellon Wind Ensemble will perform Febris Ver a piece by composition faculty member Nancy Galbraith, as well as the wind band standard Holst's First Suite for Military Band. $5 general admission. Students free w/ valid ID.
Program:
Thunder and Blazes (Entry of the Gladiators) by Julius Fučík arr. Louis-Philippe Laurendeau
Sinfonietta for Wind Ensemble by John Williams
Hill Song No. 2 by Percy Grainger
Febris Ver by Nancy Galbraith
Adagio for Wind Instruments by Joaquín Rodrigo
First Suite in E-flat for Military Band, Op. 28, No. 1 by Gustav Holst
The Carnegie Mellon Wind Ensemble is designed to have a single performer on each instrumental part, emulating the orchestral wind section. This helps musicians develop an orchestral tone color, maximizes personal responsibility, and encourages a chamber music style of playing even in a large ensemble setting.
