Let's Dance!

May 21st, 2023 | USF School of Music

  

 This concert is in partnership with our Bay Area Youth (BAY) Winds Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Winds conducted by Dr. Matthew McCutchen and Mrs. Devin DeDon.  


 Let's Dance! will explore masterwork pieces from the wind ensemble repertoire. For as long as humans have moved, they have danced. In fact, historians believe that social, celebratory, and ritual dances were essential factors in the development of human civilizations. The Florida Wind Band will be dancing through the new world in a concert that celebrates many of the different styles of dance that are beloved in South America featuring Michael Gandalfi’s “Vientos y Tangos” and Luis Serrano Alarcon’s “Duende". From the United States, we will highlight Leonard Bernstein’s classic “Four Dances from Westside Story” and Aaron Copland’s iconic “Variations on a Shaker Melody”. From Argentinian tangos, to British dance halls, to America's Broadway, this concert is full of music that will make it difficult for the audience to sit still.

An International Celebration

March 25th, 2023 | Sickles High School (Educational Outreach)

March 26th, 2023 | Palma Ceia Presbyterian Church (Community Concert)

  

Throughout recorded history, music has played an important role in celebrations. Whether people are dancing the night away to let off steam, memorializing the life of a loved one, or simply enjoying a concert, music is there to rejoice, eulogize, and comfort. The repertoire includes pieces that are beloved to global audiences including Shostakovich's "Festive Overture" (Russia), Grainger's "Scotch Strathspey and Reel" (Scotland), and Brahms' "Blessed are They" (Germany), alongside newer works such as Giroux's "Evening Snow at Kambara" (Japan), and Day's "Havana" (Cuba). The American work on this performance is Ticheli's masterwork "Blue Shades", which is one of the most performed wind band works of the past decade.
