This Wednesday, an elite group of musicians from the University of Manitoba will share their skills with local music students.

Kevin Lewis, the Music Director at R.D. Parker Collegiate, shares the details.

“The University of Manitoba Wind Ensemble is their top concert band performing ensemble. There are 49 musicians who will be coming up to Thompson that are part of a Northern Manitoba tour. They are going to be playing with students from RD Park Collegiate and working with them along with a couple of other schools in the North of Manitoba.”  

On Wednesday night at 7 in the Letkemann Theatre, the Wind Ensemble will be joined on stage by the R.D. Parker Concert band and the Thompson Community Band.

The community is invited to attend and the cost of admission is free.
