Instrumental Recordings

The Houghton College Symphonic Winds performed at the 28th annual New York State Band Directors Association Symposium on March 7th, 2009. The audience was made up primarily of collegiate and public school band directors, as well as the statewide high school and middle school honor band students. The program included works by Percy Grainger, Philip Rothman, Vittorio Giannini, Henry Fillmore, and David Gillingham. In addition, internationally acclaimed conductor/author Frank L. Battisti guest conducted the Symphonic Winds in Gustav Holst’s landmark work First Suite in Eb. The ensuing performance at the beginning of the second half of the program resulted in an instant standing ovation.

Mark Recording Services recorded this performance, and CD’s are now available. The recording also includes “bonus tracks” of performances by the ensemble from recent years. Recordings are selling for $15 in the Houghton Campus Store or may be ordered by calling the Houghton College Symphonic Winds office at (585) 567-9404.
