Beyond the neon...there is cultural life in Las Vegas, and the Sierra Winds are at the heart of it.
Since its inception in 1982, the Sierra Winds have established themselves as one of the nation's premier chamber music ensembles. First-rate musicianship and innovative programming, applauded internationally, have won the group numerous grants and awards.
Sierra Winds has been heard on public radio stations throughout the country. They have released three CD recordings, all by Cambria Records: “A Box of Views,” (1989); “Another View,” (1992); and “Get on Board! American Music for Woodwinds by William Grant Still,” (1995). The members of the Sierra Winds serve on the faculty for the Department of Music at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
The audience is invited to join the artists at a reception following the performance.
