Time: 12:00am to 11:59pm

The Nebraska Wesleyan Symphonic Band travels to Minnesota. Performances will include visits to public school programs along the way to and within the Twin Cities. Other explorations will include visits to cultural and art museums of Minneapolis, and attendance to a performance by the Minnesota Orchestra. On this trip, the band will play musical works inspired by poetry, history, and visual art. Kimberly Archer’s Tides draws from a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Lore of the Pony Express is the subject of William Owens’ Across The Great Plains. In Mosaic, Stephen Paulus translates into sound the visual concept of fragments coming together to form a larger image. The repertoire is completed by Gestures, a musical homage that Randall Standridge composed for his former college band directors at the University of Northern Colorado.
