The event was originally to have been presented as the Wind Ensemble鈥檚 annual Halloween Concert on Oct. 30, with the pieces selected and ensemble attired to reflect the holiday thematically, but was postponed.  Although the musicians will not be in costume, the program will be the same: Hector Berlioz鈥檚 鈥淢arch to the Scaffold鈥�; Alex Turley鈥檚 鈥淐ity of Ghosts鈥�; 鈥淒ancing with the Devil,鈥� by Dana Wilson; 鈥淐ome Sweet Death,鈥� by J.S. Bach; Kevin Houben鈥檚 鈥淎rcana鈥�; and 鈥淢usic of Amber,鈥� by Joseph Schwantner.

The Wind Ensemble is directed by Gabe Southard. Southard is an associate professor at Hope, where he also conducts the Concert Band, and the Faculty and Student Collaborative Ensemble. He completed his Doctorate of Musical Arts in conducting at Michigan State University and has performed with the Madison Symphony Orchestra and the Lucca, Italy, Opera Orchestra, as well as a number of community orchestras. As a flute player, he maintains an active performing schedule by playing the principal flute in the Holland Symphony Orchestra and giving solo and chamber recitals. Southard is currently engaged in recording a CD of works by Dana Wilson. In 2020 he was named a Pearl Flute Artist by Pearl Musical Instrument Company.
