Celebrating America’s 250th anniversary!
Brass Quintet

Made in America is a celebration of 250 years of American music.

The selections of this program cover a wide variety of styles, as is very fitting of this beautifully diverse country; including everything from Aaron Copland’s ballet Rodeo to American folk songs like America the Beautiful to orchestral music like Leroy Anderson’s Bugler’s Holiday to popular songs like Paul Simon’s Bridge Over Troubled Water and Stevie Wonder’s Sir Duke to the marches of John Philip Sousa!

Acclaimed as “the perfect blend of virtuosity and vitality” (Chicago Brass Festival), the Alliance Brass has emerged as one of the country’s most exciting ensembles.

“On a scale of 1-10, they’re a 12!” – Gallup Concert Association

Forgottonia is a musical journey through the people and places of rural Illinois, just as the last vestiges of the old “Forgottonia” slowly eroded away. The show combines storytelling and live music with images from award-winning rural photographer Tim Schroll, long known for his striking black-and-white photographs of rural Illinois. Vallillo shares the histories and backstories of these songs, which document, reflect, and validate the people, places, and characters of rural IL, reinforcing these communities’ sense of commitment and worth.
