Wisconsin Lutheran Band to Debut Commissioned Music
Wisconsin Lutheran High School Concert Band, under the direction of Mr. Quinten Petersen, will debut a new piece of music entitled Seeds of Glass at the Spring Band Concert on Thursday, March 23, at 7:00 p.m. The music explores the intersection of nature and technology, and the video that accompanies the piece portrays the evolution of a huge machine made of glass.
The machine starts as a seed and slowly grows and expands, continuously progressing; similar to a living organism. The music from the band reflects this duality of nature and technology by blending lush, open sonorities with a dubstep influenced, electronic-dance-music groove.

Seeds of Glass was commissioned by a consortium led by Dr. Emily A. Moss, Director of Bands and Director of Instrumental Music Education for the Department of Music, Theatre and Dance at California State University, Los Angeles.
