MWE Spring 2025 Concert: “Travelers”

May 17 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm

In our hearts, our minds, our souls
We travel from life to life to life
In time and eternity.
-David Maslanka, program notes for Traveler

As the old traditional tune in Slava! passed on through Beethoven, Mussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakov and others until Leonard Bernstein picked it up. As the love and passion for salon dances passed on to Arturo Marquez through his friends Andrés Fonseca and Irene Martínez. As the playfulness and brilliance of Thelonius Monk inspired David Biedenbender. As Quinn Mason was inspired by David Maslanka’s own reflections on our souls accumulating the past and projecting into the future. Whether through a tune, a rhythm, a dance, an idea, we live on through the people around us, and we in turn will be remembered. As a traveler in time and eternity. This performance by the Manhattan Wind Ensemble features works by Leonard Bernstein, Arturo Marquez, David Biedenbender, Quinn Mason and David Maslanka.
