Woodlands Orchestra and Choir Spring
Concert
Directed by Gail Herbst and Ron
Bacon
Woodland’s
Orchestra and Choir will feature a fine weekend of music written by
English composers. The
orchestra will feature Gustav Holst’s First Suite in E-flat
as well as Mars and Jupiter from his suite for large
orchestra titled The Planets. Our own trombonist Dave
Johnstone will be featured in a trombone concerto and you can tap
your feet to the quick march Sea Songs by Vaughan
Williams.
Woodland’s
Chorus will perform “Five Flower Songs” by Benjamin Brittan as their
portion of the Concert in May. These songs, based on five
poems in English, were written for a choral festival and first
performed in 1952. They are appropriate for a small SATB
chorus and are varied and beautiful
