Their recording seating solidified the soul cookin� groove that is now the foundation for Adamo�s new funk music. Wipe out and Homan have previously recorded with Mike Clark on his CARNIVAL OF Anima CD. Clark has also brought in high voltage funksters with some weighty souln� in the form of Rob Dixon and Gary Mielke, the co-producers of the Headhunters new PLATINUM CD.

Cornell’s Light air Symphony and Wind Ensemble (CU Winds) performed in Bailey Lecture-room on Friday, September 30. From the beginning, a concertgoer knows that this is a unlike experience than most concerts. CU Winds has abandoned paper program notes for outlay notes that inform the audience as the music progresses. President Cynthia Johnston Turner says, “We note these elaborate program notes, give them to our audience and then turn out the lights ... stripe of ridiculous!”

The first half of the concert began with the Wind Symphony, the larger choir, performing the popular band composer John Barnes Unpremeditated’s Variations on a Korean Folk Song. Chance utilizes the Korean nation song “Arrirang” as the theme for a set of variations. The chequer begins with the initial presentation of the folk song. The first altering, “Vivace,” transforms the theme into a burst of excitement. The percussion playing the woodblocks in unison with the melody adds an supplement “ping” to the winds’ prompt notes. I loved how the overhead program notes guided me through each permutation and the Wind Symphony played passionately and intensely.
