June 23-- "Current of Change" will be played at our September 19 Pops Concert. We will also be recording it live in the Theatre that night. Come and be part of history. The concert is the final event of the International Fall Festival in downtown Eau Claire that day.
The world
premier of "Current of Change: Suite for Symphonic Orchestra" by Eau Claire composer
Dennis Luginbill was a triumph! A huge crowd heard the world premier. The composer got three curtain calls and took repeated bows.
Volume One Publisher Nick Meyer was in the crowd and raved about the performance. Read it here:
Recording: We have received many, many requests for a recording of "Current of Change" either as a CD or bundled with the slide show as a DVD package. We are looking into this, because, as was said after the concert and paraphrasing our slogan, this concert was
MUSIC YOU KNOW BY PEOPLE YOU LOVE.
"Music
excites people and unites them in harmony. It is our pleasure to
provide a stirring musical experience to our enthusiastic audiences.
I hope you will come to experience this electrifying musical journey
with us."
"We
know we have to compete with CDs and DVDs, that's why we strive
to provide an incredibly high level of live performance--there's
nothing like a live performance."
Music Director and
Conductor:
Nobuyoshi "Nobu" Yasuda
