New Concert Band Reading Session – NEXT WEEK! Friday, November 09, 2012
The 2012 Wind Band Invitational and Concert Band Reading Session at Mees Hall, Capital University takes place Next Week – November 16 & 17! This annual event is a fantastic way to get to hear the best new music for concert band performed by real student musicians instead of professionally produced publisher promos. It’s also a perfect opportunity to connect with colleagues and catch a break after marching season. Highlights include:
- Honors Wind Ensemble conducted by Dr. Frank Tracz, Director of Bands – Kansas State University
- Honors Concert Band led by renowned composers, conductors, and educators Barry E. Kopetz and James Swearingen
- Capital University Wind Symphony and Symphonic Winds conducted by Barry E. Kopetz
- Guest band performances by the Franklin Heights High School Symphonic Band conducted by Mark Fox, and the Columbus Junior Winds conducted by Jim Dowdy
- Bring Your Instrument to play in the 2 Directors’ Reading Sessions!
As always, Stanton’s Sheet Music will have a display of all of the music being performed available for review and purchase, and members of our expert band staff on-site. Both events are co-sponsored by Capital University and Stanton’s Sheet Music so your participation is FREE! Mark your calendar for either, both, or parts of both days – We look forward to seeing you there!!
