Lewis & Clark Wind Symphony & Percussion Ensemble

The Lewis & Clark College Wind Symphony and Percussion Ensemble, under the direction of Brett EE Paschal, invite you to an evening of contemporary music exploring the power of sound to inspire, connect, and express the human experience on Friday, December 4, 2026 at 7:30pm in Evans Auditorium. From quiet reflection to exhilarating rhythms, this concert celebrates creativity, collaboration, and musical discovery.
The Percussion Ensemble explores a remarkable range of sounds and textures. Eric Rath’s "HeliX" highlights the energy of percussion chamber music, while Juri Seo’s "Shui" creates a meditative soundscape as performers lower shimmering metal instruments into water, producing haunting, resonant tones. Ivan Trevino’s "Watercolor Sun", performed by four musicians sharing a single marimba, captures moments of warmth, gratitude, and joy. Rick Dior’s "Minor Infractions" rounds out the program with an exciting journey from delicate melodies to intricate rhythms and dazzling technical displays.
The Wind Symphony presents three expressive works exploring connection, memory, and the human experience. Randall Standridge’s "(not)ALONE" addresses mental health and the importance of knowing we are not alone. Viet Cuong’s "Shared Spaces" reflects on grief, healing, and human connection through musical lines passed between performers. "Hypnotic Memories" creates an atmospheric journey of evolving melodies and hypnotic rhythmic patterns.
Featuring Lewis & Clark students from across academic disciplines, this concert celebrates the expressive possibilities of contemporary music and its ability to communicate beyond words.
Join us for an evening of musical discovery that invites curiosity, encourages reflection, and celebrates the connections that bring us together.
Tickets are available online and at the door one hour before the concert via cash or check. $10 General Admission.
