Forced from their homes, Orlando, Duke Senior, his daughter Rosalind and niece Celia escape to the fantastical Forest of Arden. Lost amidst the trees, the refugees find community and acceptance under the stars. Featuring an original folk-pop score by Shaina Taub (Suffs), As You Like Itis appropriate for all audiences.This Arden…is a place of refuge, generosity, joy, growth and forgiveness — but most of all, of transformational love.– Variety
- 8:00 PM1hUConn Symphonic Wind EnsembleDuring the past fifty years, the music world has witnessed the development of a new approach to the wind band, an approach that has drawn attention to an emerging original repertoire and to new performance possibilities for concerted wind music. Many conductors, composers and performers have moved from the popular-culture aspects of the traditional band toward a classical performance-based medium. Using an instrumentation similar to that of a "double orchestral wind section", the wind ensemble performs music composed during the past five centuries for winds, brass, percussion and keyboards. A majority of the repertoire composed specifically for various combinations of these instruments has been created during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. With the rich history of the past, the contemporary wind ensemble provides a wide variety of music ranging from the classical octet to contemporary chamber repertoire and the sonorous full ensemble.
