The second half of the program features the Wind Ensemble, performing works by Kevin Day, Ralph Vaughan Williams, and Peter Meechan. The performance will culminate with 2025 MUN Bands Composer-in-Residence, Alex Shapiro’s epic symphony for winds, brass, percussion, and electronics, Immersion.

Presented in collaboration with the MUN Ocean Science Society, this concert will feature a special interactive experience at intermission—ocean touch tanks filled with fascinating sea creatures! Ocean Science students will be on hand to educate audience members about the incredible creatures of the deep.
