Metropolis (1927) is a German expressionist silent film based on a novel of the same name. The wind ensemble will be performing a concert of repertoire that is inspired by the core message of the film. "The mediator between the head and the hands must be the heart." This concert aims to embrace the "human factor" of life, joy, grief, laughter, and enjoying every fleeting moment of life. The program will include works by Bernstein, Schubring, Graham, and the wind ensemble premiere "Princess Chang Ping: Concerto for Marimba & Wind Ensemble,” written and performed by one of our own studio professors, Dr. Pius Cheung.
