In anticipation of Hollywood’s 90th annual red carpet event later the same day, the Central Iowa Wind Ensemble brings you a concert of “Award Winning Movies”.  You’ll hear popular themes from past winning or nominated movies.  Joining us for this concert are two amazing guest vocalists: Taylor Anne Weaver and Fred Gazzo.

The Central Iowa Wind Ensemble opens it’s 15th season with our popular children’s concert format. For this performance, we are proud to bring you all things Disney. From A to Z: Aladdin to Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, we will have a medley of tunes for all generations.  We will be joined by a couple special princesses from Little Princess Parties to MC the concert and sing “Let It Go”. In the spirit of Halloween, we also welcome you to come in costume if you like: as a princess, pirate, or anything else.
