老司机传媒 Wind Symphony presents a concert of music that honors our past as we celebrate 150 years. We begin with an exciting piece that embodies the spirit of our pioneers, followed by pieces composed by our very own Dr. Max Keller, Assistant Professor of Music, Theory and Composition Area Coordinator, and Chair of the Department of Music and Dr. Kenneth Logan, Organ Instructor and Minister of Music at Pioneer Memorial Church. Sharing his arrangement of Advent hymn tunes, Dr. Keller’s work weaves in The Morning Trumpet (Oh When Shall I See Jesus) with Kingsfold, also known as I Heard the Voice of Jesus or O Sing a Song of Bethlehem. Dr. Logan’s original composition, We, From Battle Creek highlights in four movements important places in Battle Creek SDA history.
 
The second half of the program begins with a march commemorating 150 years of Michigan history, and ends with the Travis Cross arrangement of Be Thou My Vision, a collaboration with singers from the Battle Creek Tabernacle and Pioneer Memorial Church. We hope you will join us for a wonderful evening on Saturday, October 26, 2024 at 8:00 pm at the Howard Performing Arts Center. Tickets are available at howard.andrews.edu.
