The USA Symphony Band under the direction of Dr. Jason Rinehart and the USA Wind Ensemble under the direction of Dr. William Petersen open the season with a concert entitled "Music Inspired by Words. The performance will be held in the Laidlaw Performing Arts Center on Tuesday, September 26 at 7:30 p.m. The USA Symphony Band will take the listener on that journey through literature by presenting Elliot Del Borgo's "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" and Steve Danyew's "Goodnight, Goodnight," both pieces inspired by poetry.
