Welcome to Winds on Wednesdays, a musical tapas of winds, brass, and percussion. This 5-week series features short digital mini-concerts, each just 20-30 minutes in length, in celebration of the bold music-making of NEC's Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Winds, and Percussion Ensemble during the Fall semester of 2020.
In each mini-concert, hear a selection of contemporary and classic works, recorded live in Jordan Hall and presented unedited.
"COVID inspired us to think anew about how we bring music to you. In spite of the limits in musical preparation posed by the pandemic, we are bringing you live and unedited performances; not full concerts, but in smaller portions – musical tapas.
Just as with that Spanish delight, the tastes and flavors are varied and more delightful for being served in smaller bites. So, pour a glass of cava and enjoy our musical Tapas. Buen Provecho."
—Charles Peltz, conductor, NEC Wind Ensemble and Director of Wind Ensembles
