U.S. Marine Band Public Concert - February 2017
“The President’s Own” United States Marine Band performs a concert titled “Wanderers,” conducted by Major Michelle A. Rakers. The performance will feature music that was created out of personal journeys, whether those journeys were metaphorically through one’s own creative development or in the literal sense of actual traveling. Highlights include John Philip Sousa’s The Grand Promenade at the White House (Coronation March) from Tales of a Traveler, Scott Lindroth’s Passage, Ottorino Respighi’s The Pines of Rome, and a Charles Ives Song Set.
Music and Film
Hear new sounds for silent films when School of Music chamber groups perform their own original film scores for silent movie shorts. The screening also features the performance of an original score for Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm by Music & Film composer-in-residence, Maria Newman.
Gamer Symphony Orchestra
The student-run Gamer Symphony Orchestra is the first collegiate ensemble exclusively devoted to performing orchestral arrangements of video game music and using that music as an educational tool. All of our arrangements are created by GSO members and alumni. We now boast a roster of more than 100 musicians, including 30 singers, and play to packed houses at the University of Maryland's largest performing arts venue, the 1,100-seat Dekelboum Concert Hall! Our mission is to bridge the worlds of video games and the performing arts and promote orchestral VGM as an art form.
