Tune in Sunday at 3:00pm CT for A Socially Distanced Celebration - the first of two at-home concert experiences we have planned this fall.

Samuel Ward - America, the Beautiful (arr. Carmen Dragon)
George Gershwin - Strike Up the Band (arr. John P. Paynter)

The concert will premiere on Facebook at 3:00pm CT today (Premiere Link). If you cannot make it, the video will also be available for viewing after the fact.

Hope you can catch it!

Tell Brad I say "hi" :)

Looks like a great program!

I enjoyed watching the video very much.
I hope you are allowed to do more very soon.

We are quickly running out of good weather to rehearse at the pavilion we have had access to for the past few months, but we will be moving indoors in even smaller groups soon. We are currently in the process of putting together another recorded concert like this, though I don't know what the planned release date is. I'll be sure to post it when I have more information.

I have only heard of plans for one more recorded concert, but I imagine that we will do more after the new year. The board for the Northshore Concert Band has done a fabulous job in balancing all of the changing factors and finding new venues to rehearse at, all the while being respectful of people's personal safety preferences and finding reasonable ways to accommodate them. They have worked really hard to find ways to keep making music, and it's been an honor to work with them.

Thank for listening, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
