Met Winds - Spring Concert: "Scenes"

05-04-2025 3:00 pm

Be transported through music to a variety of places and scenarios! In a nod to the afternoon's young guest artists, the concert opens with the recently composed Fanfare for a New Era. Scenes from Boston, New York, and Minnesota are depicted in Peter Schickele's wonderful Metropolitan Wind Serenade, written for and first premiered/recorded by the MetWinds in 1995. Another highlight is the musical experience of an African American Pentecostal church service re-created in AMEN! by GRAMMY-nominated composer Carlos Simon, recently named Composer Chair of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Local middle school and high school students join the MetWinds for Cajun Folk Songs by Frank Ticheli and Norman Dello Joio's soundtrack for a TV documentary on France's famous art museum, music which has now become a classic work for band, Scenes from "The Louvre."
