Doug Bush, lecturer and assistant director of bands in the Glenn Korff School of Music said the program has something to offer to everyone.
“There are sounds of American and European band music on the first half and then join us for a journey through the mythological to conclude the concert,” he said. “The bands will each be premiering music by student composers, Bryce Hayes and Ramón Araújo, as we continue our UNL Campus Bands Commissioning Project. We regret we will be unable to accommodate a live audience this year, so please join us for the livestream.”
Hayes’s piece is titled “The 25th Annual Hee Haw Howdy Ho Hoe-down” and will be conducted by Bush and performed by The Donald A. Lentz Concert Band.
Araújo’s piece is titled “The Western Monarch Trail” and will be conducted by Trevor Frost and performed by The Jack R. Snider Concert Band.
