Join us at the Broadway Theatre for a musical pilgrimage across time, geography, and the human experience. Opening the program is the Wind Ensemble, under the direction of Nick Fanner. As 'wayfarers' through sound, we begin our journey in the quiet, reflective beauty of the natural world. From the delicate bloom of Autumn Rose to the vast, untamed expanses of Wilderness, we explore the grounding power of the earth beneath our feet.
In the haunting strains of Wayfaring Stranger, we hear the timeless song of the traveler seeking rest, followed by the vibrant, celebratory energy of The Genius of Ray Charles—a tribute to a pioneer who found a way to turn personal struggle into universal joy.
Our journey concludes as we revisit the foundational structure of the wind band through the classic Overture for Winds, before finally reaching the cosmic wonder of Diamond Tide.
The second half of this musical journey features the Jazz Band under the direction of Doug Gilmour. From timeless big band hits such as “Hayburner” to the more contemporary sounds of jazz such as God Bless the Child, you will be subject to an incredible treat from our 40-piece jazz ensemble.
Tickets are available from the Broadway Theatre Box Office or members of the Wind Ensemble or the Jazz Band at $15/ticket.
We can't wait to see you Wednesday, March 4th for 7:30pm at the Broadway!
