Experience an exhilarating concert featuring the Elder Conservatorium Wind Orchestra, performing music full of exuberance, virtuosic brilliance, and wonder. Alfred Reed’s The Hounds of Spring, inspired by an ancient Greek tragedy celebrating young love, bursts to life with high-spirited energy and lyrical tenderness. Paul Creston’s Concerto for Alto Saxophone follows, a cornerstone of modern repertoire that showcases the instrument’s full versatility through its exceptionally demanding solo part, performed here by third-year saxophonist Olivia Marton. A radiant, three-movement journey concludes the concert: Frank Ticheli’s Symphony No. 2, evoking shooting stars, moonlight, and sunlight in music that invites imagination.
