Adelaide Wind Orchestra presents Journey to Korea

Send them off in style as they celebrate Australian music on the world stage.

Adelaide Wind Orchestra is proud to have been among a very limited number of ensembles worldwide to be selected to perform at the 20th International Conference of the World Association of Symphonic Bands & Ensembles in Gwangju, South Korea. Their goal is to showcase the artistic practice of Australian on the world stage including new works by living Australian composers such as Martin Cheney, Anne Cawrse, David John Lang, Connor Fogarty, and Holly Harrison. This concert is a preview performance and a chance for an Adelaide audience to celebrate before they depart.

Frank Ticheli’s Folksongs from Jeju Island was commissioned by the Organizing Committee of the Jeju International Wind Ensemble Festival and provides connection to the rich musical history and folksongs of South Korea.
