The First Coast Wind Symphony presents a Mother’s Day Concert titled “Salute to America 250” on Sunday, May 10 at 4:00 pm at St. John’s Cathedral, 256 E. Church St., Jacksonville.
Admission and parking are free.
The First Coast Wind Symphony, Jacksonville’s premier community music organization, is a 60-member group led by music director Artie Clifton and conductor Paul Weikle. The organization provides a cultural service by offering free concerts of outstanding wind music throughout the greater Jacksonville area.
The program will include patriotic music that celebrates America’s 250th birthday with the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. Selections include “American Salute,” “Fanfare 250,” and “Broad Stripes and Bright Stars.”
The concert will feature St. John’s Cathedral organist Timothy Tuller performing with the First Coast Wind Symphony the classic “Crown Imperial,” a coronation march by English composer William Walton.
The program will also include the premiere performance of a fresh new work by local composer Bob Moore titled “Finster!” based on the colorful life of American folk artist Howard Finster. Several Finster paintings will be displayed during the performance as the music captures the spirit of each artwork.
The First Coast Wind Symphony has released three albums to wide acclaim, Prevailing Winds, A Christmas Celebration and Symphonic Spirit, and a DVD titled Sounds of the First Coast. More information about the group is available at www.fcwinds.org.
