Description:
Faculty members from the Virginia Tech Department of Music collaborate to perform works for large chamber wind ensemble. The program features David Maslanka's Little Concerto for Six Players, Jean Francaix's Hommage a l'Ami Papageno, Darius Milhaud's La création du monde, and Michael Daughterty's Dead Elvis. The program is very rhythmic, somewhat jazz-influenced, and relatively theatrical. The instrumentation allows nearly every member of the Virginia Tech applied instrumental faculty to participate. The ensembles are conducted by Travis Cross.

Tickets are available for advance purchase at the UUSA ticket office in Squires Student Building or at the door of the venue beginning one hour prior to the performance. For additional ticket information, call the UUSA ticket office at 540-231-5615.
