The UMass Wind Ensemble and Symphony Band open their 2016-2017 season with music that encourages you to travel. Symphony Band opens the concert with a journey across America and the Wind Ensemble takes you "away" to exotic Greece, Scotland, Bohemia, and... South Carolina (with electronics). Karen Atherton conducts Symphony Band.
