Selections include “English Folk Song Suite and Sea Songs” by Ralph Vaughn Williams, “Celtic Carol” by Robert Smith and “Fantasy on a Bell Carol” by Edward Madden. In “Dialogues”, Michael Sweeney presents a duet between percussion and winds, and Michael Colgrass’ “Old Churches” is music impressionism at its best. An international flair rounds out the concert in “Latin Carnivale”, a Victor Lopez arrangement of Latin pop tunes. The concert will be on Sunday, December 12th at 3:00 p.m. at River Hill High School, 12101 Rt. 108, in Clarksville, MD. Admission is free and no tickets are required.
