     ° The UPEI Wind Symphony will be performing at the Dr. Steel Recital Hall on Friday, April

     university concert. 
     
    

    
     The main influence upon the success of the UPEI Wind Symphony as an ensemble is the 
     
     dedication of its director. Simon is also a well known adjudicator, and clarinetist. Before joining 
     
     the faculty of music at UPEI and assuming the position of chair, Simon was a music educator 
     
     in the Newfoundland public school system for many years.

     7 9 nivers ity interest for every listener. The wild and contrasting sections of Africa, by Robert W. Smith, 
     
     should be as exciting to listen to as it is for the members of the symphony to perform. Chester 
     
     by William Schuman, Canzona by Peter Mennin, and Havendance by David R. Holsinger are
