Peter Wilson with DGN Symphonic Band in Preparation for Carnegie Hall

Violinist Peter Wilson was on campus this evening to work with the DGN Band in preparation for the upcoming "New York Nouveau" concert at Carnegie Hall. Dr. Wilson will be a featured soloist with the DGN Symphonic Band on the March 2nd program.

With less than 40 days remaining to the concert, excitement is really starting to build. Thank you, Dr. Wilson, for sharing your musicianship with us tonight!
