The UVic Wind Symphony presents an exciting and vibrant finale to the 2023/24 concert season with Tapestry. Exploring music from different cultures, styles, genres, and time periods, the program creates a rich and diverse tapestry of people, sounds, and colours. Along with composers Cait Nishimura (Origin), Eric Whitacre (October), James David (Urban LIght), and Norman Dello Joio (Satiric Dances), we feature UVic Concerto Competition Winner Xavier Marican (alto saxophone) performing the Concerto Capriccio on Themes of Paganini, and as a special finale, acclaimed international trombone virtuoso Faustino Diaz will perform as a guest soloist with the Wind Symphony in a commissioned work by Jorge Arturo Castillo García written for the concert. This is not to be missed!
