The OWU Middle School Honor Band Festival Concert, featuring nearly 175 middle school musicians from across Ohio, in Gray Chapel inside University Hall, 61 S. Sandusky St., Delaware.
Membership in the Honor Band was competitive, with students selected based on musicianship and attitude. Because of the number of students selected, they will perform as two bands, conducted by Mary Kate McNally, OWU Marching Band director; Richard Edwards, associate professor of music; and Yuji Jones, band director for Marion City Schools’ Grant Middle and Harding High schools.
Songs scheduled to be performed include “Sunchaser” by Carol Brittin Chambers, “Woven” by 2007 OWU alumna Nicole Piunno, “Ancient Flower” by Yukiko Nishimura, and “The Devil’s Workshop” by Kimberly Archer.
Admission is free. Learn more at www.owu.edu/music. Watch the video.
