Both composers draw inspiration from the Easter story in the Christian tradition. We’ll hear a shortened version of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Russian Easter Overture, and then hear David Holsinger’s monumental work, Easter Symphony. It’s a work in three movements, for wind band, chorus and solo vocalists, perfect for the Easter holiday season. If you love your music big and full of drama and lush orchestration, you’re going to love these pieces. And we get to hear them both, right here, at the gathering place for people who love band music, Wind & Rhythm.April 20, 2025 - Sunday1:00PM - Easter SundayMusic for Easter Sunday and works based on Easter hymns, tunes, and chants.1:30 - Tabernacle Choir at Temple SquareEaster Sunday Episode: He is Risen
