MSU Symphonic Band celebrates season with 'Winter Dances'
The Minot State University Symphonic Band is presenting a concert, "Winter Dances," Monday (Dec. 3) in Ann Nicole Nelson Hall at 7:30 p.m. Devin Otto, MSU director of bands, conducts the Symphonic Band, which is comprised of music majors as well as students from other academic programs.
The concert will contain music celebrating the winter season, including "Winter Dances" by Brian Balmages and "Comets in Winter Sky" by Daniel McCarthy.
"The centerpiece of the concert is a pillar of the wind band repertoire, Alfred Reed's "Russian Christmas Music," which is based on liturgical music of the Eastern Orthodoxy," Otto said. "We will also play a few seasonal favorites along the way!"
This concert is free and open to the public.
For questions, contact Otto at 858-3189 or devin.otto@minotstateu.edu.
