Wind Bands
Wind Band Masterworks Vol. II: The British Isles
Friday, June 7, 2013
8 p.m. Harman Hall, Performing Arts Center
Cal Poly Wind Orchestra and Wind Ensemble
The Cal Poly Band program recently announced it will take a performance tour of England, Ireland and Scotland in June 2013. To celebrate, the band will explore all aspects of the British musical tradition, and you are invited to share their discoveries in a concert featuring music from across the British Isles. This concert will showcase music written from as early as the Renaissance to pieces that were published in just the past few decades. It is sure to be a night to remember as the Cal Poly Bands take you “across the pond” to the British Isles, courtesy of some of the greatest music ever written.
