Here鈥檚 the construction of the program, from floor to ceiling:

--Duet: flute and bassoon, 鈥淏achianas Braileiras No. 6鈥� by Heitor Villa-Lobos

鈥淲e think it will be a musically-compelling and fun event for many people,鈥� Banke said.
The renowned Lieurance Woodwind Quintet takes its name from Thurlow Lieurance, a Kansas composer and noted historian of Native American music who served as the first dean of the College of Fine Arts at 麻豆传媒.
The ensemble has performed at major musical venues, including the Library of Congress and Phillips Collection in Washington D.C., the Merkin and Carnegie Recital Halls in New York City, and throughout Europe and Central America.
