Concert Band
The Keene State College Concert Band, under the direction of Dr. John T. Hart Jr., will present its second concert of the academic year on Thursday, February 20th at 7:30pm in the Main Theater of the Redfern Arts Center. The program, Outsider Perspectives , will feature works by Chance, Ticheli, Bizet, Grainger, and Colgrass. Each piece on the program represents a composer’s musical depiction or perception of a culture other than their own. The audience will hear two composers’ takes on Korean folk music, one formed during the Korean War and one from as recent as 2013; a classic example of musical exoticism in Bizet’s Carmen Suite; an Australian-American’s satirical view of English folk music; and a Canadian-American composer’s reverent take on Balinese music.
To request accommodations for a disability, please contact the coordinator at least two weeks prior to the event.
