Over the next couple of days I will be the guest conductor and composer for Millikin University's High School Honor Band Festival.
The event begins tonight, October 23, with an open rehearsal on "Deep River" with the Millikin University Symphonic Wind Ensemble conducted by the composer as well as a Q & A session to follow with the Millikin students and local band directors. The high school students then arrive Monday morning October 24th for an all-day event of rehearsals and other clinics culminating in a performance at 7pm CDT. The concert will feature the Millikin Symphonic Wind Ensemble performing a program that will include "Deep River" with the composer guest conducting the work for the first time ever. The second half of the concert will feature the High School Honor Band performing a program entirely with Benjamin Horne as their conductor. Comments are closed.
