The Northwest Wind Symphony opens its 25th season this fall on Saturday, October 24th, at 7 p.m. in Corbet Theatre on the Centralia College campus.
To begin our Silver Anniversary Season, we’re taking you to Hollywood. From the Walt Disney studio that garnered more Oscars than any other (a total of thirty-three) to the music of John Williams, we’ll walk down memory lane. Included are works of lesser known and perhaps surprising musical luminaries such as Aaron Copland, Randy Newman, Michael Giachino, and even John Phillip Sousa (yes, he did in fact write music for the movies!).
Enjoy classic movie medleys, including music from Mary Poppins, and “Days of Wine and Roses.” Fast-forward to modern spy movie music from the Leonardo DiCaprio/Tom Hanks movie, “Catch Me If You Can,” featuring Nicklas Waroff, alto saxophonist. Experience lesser-known music of famous composers Copland and Sousa. We’ll bring the evening to a close with music from Pixar hits “The Incredibles” and “A Bug’s Life,” and of course, such a concert would not be complete without the venerable “Star Wars” theme music.
Tickets are available at the door or from Book ‘n’ Brush in Chehalis. General admission tickets are $12. Children and students are admitted free with paying adult.
