A pre-concert talk will take place at 3 p.m. between Dr. Dorn a Katahj Copley, composer of "Amerykahn Graffiti". The St. Olaf Band will present the world premiere of this major work, which Copley describes as “a reimagining of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition, painted in sound and soul, it is a journey through the Black experience — our joy, our wounds, our beauty, our rage."

Founded in 1891, the St. Olaf Band is the oldest music organization at St. Olaf College, a campus internationally renowned for its high caliber of music ensembles. The band has toured nationally since 1904 and internationally since 1906, when it performed a four-week, 30-concert tour of Norway, making it the first American collegiate band to tour Europe. The band has subsequently toured several times in Norway, Great Britain, Japan, central Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
