2018-2019 Calendar
SAVANNAH RIVER WINDS 2018 - 2019 SEASON
September 17, 2018 PRISM
The First Baptist Church of North Augusta - 7:30 PM
PRISM features the chamber ensembles from Savannah River Winds.
Chamber groups such as flute choir, saxophone quartet, brass
quintet, percussion ensemble, and many others are positioned
throughout the sanctuary of The First Baptist Church of North Augusta.
Each ensemble performs one after the other, surrounding the audience
in a “theater in the round” presentation. This gives the audience the
opportunity to hear the “color” of each section in the wind ensemble.
After the last chamber ensemble performs, they move to the staging
area where they combine all of the “colors” of their individual groups
and blend their sounds into the sound of the wind ensemble.
