1.) It is impossible to do both, unfortunately, because the audition is on the same day (and the rehearsals at the convention are at the same time).
2.) The Top Band at All-State is playing the following works:
Olympic Fireworks (Stanhope)
Dreadnought (Brooks) - the top ensemble at state was going to play this one 2 years ago, but it was too hard...
Variation on the "Porazzi" theme (Wagner/Reed)
Music for Winds and Percussion (Atehourta)
The Promise of Living from "The Tender Land" (Copeland/Singleton)
Masque (Hesketh)
Craig Kirchoff (Univ. of Minnesota) is the director.
3.) The top orch will be playing (under direction of Larry Livingston):
Overture to "Nabucco" (Verdi)
Planets: "Saturn" (Holst)
Symphony No. 2, mvmt 1 (Mahler)
Thanks for all the responses so far! =^)
