BOTTINEAU - The Minot Symphony Orchestra has announced it will hold an outreach concert and artist clinic day in Bottineau.
The organization will be represented by the SubZero Winds, a woodwind quintet composed of five members of the Minot Symphony Orchestra - Dr. Elizabeth Demme, flute; Tim Baumann, oboe; Dr. Charlie Young, clarinet, Sheri Lien, bassoon; and Dr. Deanna Carpenter, horn. The quintet will provide a day of school engagement events to K-12 students at Bottineau Public School, including a free public concert at the Bottineau High School Auditorium on Wednesday, Oct. 28, at 10 a.m. All events are free and the public is encouraged to attend the public concert.
“We are excited to provide the opportunity for Bottineau residents to experience live music,” says MSO Executive Director Ellen Fenner. “Providing opportunities for musicians and patrons is the focus of our mission, and we couldn’t think of five better ambassadors for the Minot Symphony Orchestra.”
Performances will include a variety of musical styles, including original works for the woodwind quintets, famous works arranged for the ensemble and works by living composers. School outreach events will be 30 minutes in length and the midday concert will be around an hour.
The Minot Symphony Orchestra is a unique blend of student, community and professional musicians from the Minot area. The symphony is directed by Maestro Efraín Amaya, associate professor of Performing Arts at Minot State University.
