  Thorpe Langley Auditorium $5
A bold, stylized letter "S" outlined in yellow and black, with a white geometric arrow pointing downward inside the lower part of the "S".

The program features works that depict American landmarks, such as the Cathedral Mountains in Texas and the Shenandoah Valley, and pieces composed or commissioned by American institutions and composers, including John Philip Sousa.

“One favorite is a piece titled Melodious Thunk, which draws inspiration from the legendary jazz composer and pianist Thelonious Monk,” said Steven Siegel, DMA, UW-Superior director of bands and trumpet. “This concert is suitable for all ages and promises to provide an entertaining evening for everyone in attendance.”
