Calling all movie buffs! Relive movies from the past and visit an ancient heritage site as the Dallas Winds combine selections from unforgettable scores by iconic Hollywood composers and dramatic big-screen imagery. With Jerry Junkin, Conductor

The Magnificent Seven – Elmer Bernstein

Casablanca Suite – Max Steiner

Udow's Echoes of the Past uses photographic images from the Mesa Verde, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Colorado.  It was inhabited by Ancestral Puebloan peoples dating back to 7500 BC. By 1285 due to severe and prolonged droughts, the cliff dwellings were abandoned. Looking closely at scorched trees burnt from centuries of forest fires, one might notice images of animals, human forms, Native American Kachinas, and the remains of bewitchingly shaped trees.
