The Waynesburg University Symphonic Band will hold its Fall Band Concert Wednesday, Oct. 11, presenting its newest repertoire, “Music of the Southwest.” The concert will be held at 5:15 p.m. in the Marsh Center. Admission is free, and the public is cordially invited to attend.
Dr. Ronda DePriest, director of the Music Program, is excited to begin a new year with a new theme for the Symphonic Band. The Fall Concert will include titles such as “Bravura,” “Red River Valley” and “El Camino Real.”
“The music chosen for the Symphonic Band’s Fall Concert is reminiscent of wide open spaces and hearty people that thrive off of the beauty those spaces provide,” said DePriest. “There is a depth and vastness to this music that will be both soothing and inspirational for our audience.”
