The Winds invite you to our “welcome back” concert at 7pm on Sunday, August 29th in the garden of the Parador Inn at 939 Western Avenue in Allegheny West. In the interest of safety, this will be an outdoor concert and we strongly encourage you to be fully vaccinated before attending. We are making this a free concert to celebrate the return of live music, but we would appreciate your making a reservation to help us judge how many chairs to put up. Please email or call with the number of expected guests in your party; thank you! Write us at rcw@carlow.edu or leave a message at 412-681-7111. Thank you!
Our garden concert features a variety of wind music from the past two centuries, including the rondo from the Quintet in B-flat by Franz Danzi, one of the pioneers of the quintet medium. Paris was at center of wind instrument building and virtuosity in the Romantic era, and we pay tribute to that with pieces by Colomer and Satie. And for 46 years the Winds have worked to advance the cause of music in the United States, and that richness will be heard in works by composers young and old, male and female, black and white. Come join us for our first live concert since early 2020!
