''Horns A Plenty'' will be the first indoor concert of the fall semester by the YSU Concert Band and Wind Ensemble.

The groups, conducted by Brandt Payne and Stephen L. Gage, include 107 woodwind, brass and percussion students in the Dana School of Music.

The Concert Band will open with a program featuring Maslanka's ''Mother Earth Fanfare,'' Fucik's ''Florentiner March,'' Erickson's ''Air for Band,'' Chance's ''Incantation and Dance'' and Holst's Suite in F. Second year graduate conducting students Eric P. Bable will conduct the band on Alfred Reed's ''Hounds of Spring.''

The YSU Wind Ensemble will perform Saint-Saens' ''Marche Militaire Francaise,'' a Sousa march written for the 311th U.S. Cavalry and Percy Grainger's ''Lincolnshire Posy.''

New Dana faculty member Stacie Mickens will be featured on Dana Wilson's Concerto for Horn and Wind Ensemble.

Mickens, a recent graduate of the University of Michigan, has performed with the Lansing Symphony, the Dearborn Symphony and the Southwest Michigan Symphony, and she has been featured as a soloist at Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

The concert starts at 8 p.m. Monday at Stambaugh Auditorium, 1000 Fifth Ave., Youngstown.
