Concert Program Notes:

This afternoon, we are privileged to be playing two orginal pieces by two members of our band.  The first is Clearwater Suite in three movements by Paul Sanganki.  People familiar with the UW - Eau Claire campus will recognize the reference to Putnam Park and Little Niagra.  The middle movement was written in in honor of a friend. Paul has also arranged the second movement of Beethoven's Seventh Symphony for band.

The second original piece we will feature is Of Meadows and Mountains by Dan Siebel.
