Award for Best Choreography, is comprised of 35 brass, percussion and visual performers brought together in a unique explosion of
music and theater. Born on athletic fields across the nation, Blast! is a novel art form evolved from the
showmanship of outdoor pageantry. According to Bruce McCabe of the Boston Globe, “Blast! is an exuberant, 15-number show that doesn’t falter while bridging the
categories of classical, blues, jazz, rock n’ roll and techno-pop music. Blast! stands,
blows, pounds, marches, and whirls with panache. It has sent a full house into repeated bursts of cheering and applause. Orange County Performing Artscenter Segerstrom Hall. 714-556-ARTS.
