Past was a Blast...The Best is Yet to Come), the Oct. 10 concert by the
UL Lafayette Wind Ensemble will feature some of the best music works.

as the Pulitzer, the Ostwald, the Sudler and even Fulbright and Kennedy
Center Honors. These composers include Ron Nelson, Charles Simon Catel,

The University Wind Ensemble, conducted by Dr. William Hochkeppel, will
also perform music from 1803 to commemorate the bicentennial of the Louisiana
Purchase.
