Delano Wind Ensemble

Director: James “Pepper” Oliphant

The music for the Fall concert will be pieces that we have performed before with a theme of "America 250."  So the music is reflective of American music; American Salute, Shenandoah, American Overture and Copeland and Bernstein.  I'm certain that you will find it engaging and fun.

The Christmas concert will feature beloved Christmas songs and guests as well as our popular Christmas Sing a Long. 

Spring will bring a trip to Italy for our Viva Italia!  Concert. Scenes and sounds of Italy and Rome will stir the imagination.  

Our season will conclude with our annual commemoration of Memorial Day at the Veterans Memorial Park along the Arkansas River after the Veterans ceremony at 11:00. Patriotic and American music will recognize, memorialize and honor our fallen heroes. 

Musically,
James Oliphant
