From triumphant fanfares to Scottish and Norwegian-Irish lullabies, powerful and theatrical musical medleys, and finishing with Star Trek and Star Wars fan favourites, this show will leave you on the edge of your seats.

The show title WIND POWER gives nod to one of our pieces, Wind Power, composed by Robert Buckley. In this impressive piece, the title “Wind Power” can refer either to the various machines that are driven by the wind, or the soaring sound of a wind band. In a cinematic style, this work opens powerfully with a series of tone clusters followed by a constantly moving series of notes depicting the ebb and flow of the wind. Then we are soaring high above the ground in a glider with only the sound of the wind keeping us aloft.

The title is a fitting one, since with the exception of the bass and drums, for most of the instruments in the band, wind is the only thing that powers them. And the humans that control the wind, of course.
We hope you’ll be there, and enjoy what we have enjoyed rehearsing for you since January.
