"Join the Wind Symphony for their first concert of the academic season featuring Faculty member and horn soloist Carla Blackwood who will be premiering a concerto by Ukrainian-Australian composer Catherine Likhuta.

The concert will begin with a spark of sound out of the silence with Ryan George’s Firefly. Then, the colour and tonal language of Julie Giroux’s The Hearthstone captures the deep ambers and warmth of a burning fire. In this vein, the centerpiece of the concert, Likhuta’s Sure-fire (a three-movement work) laments Australia’s recent bushfires. As if in a dream, the concert continues painting a picture of better times with William Grant Still’s Summerland, followed by David Maslanka’s Traveler that will leave the listener in reflection. The concert closes with some old ragtime energy from Scott Joplin with Maple Leaf Rag, a new arrangement by Andrew Blair.

Each piece in this gallery of music has a unique shape from start to finish."
