Clarinetist Julian Bliss to Play with Illinois Wind Symphony

Bliss will play Divine Mischief, a clarinet concerto written for him by composer John Mackey. While in the area, Bliss will also lead a masterclass for the clarinet studio at the University of Illinois School of Music and conduct educational outreach and workshops at area elementary, middle, and high schools.
