Traveling the World with Music
April 3, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Free
Our 45 member community band will start our journey with some Travelin’ Music based on the theme of the Arkansas traveler. Bill Bailey Just Won’t Come Home will take us a tour of many regions including the Far East, Caribbean, France, Italy, Middle East and Mexico. We will travel the world of Disney Fantasy with many familiar melodies and visit England for a memorable Beatles Collection with Hey Jude and more. Our guest vocalist, Janna Braun, will sing some jazzy versions of Girl from Ipanema and Sunny Side of the Street. The band will perform the challenging and very musical overture Sedona and an upbeat Latin piece called Mambo Greats with Mambo #5 and Sway. There will be several band sections with featured solos, a march from New Zealand and some traditional music from Greece. The last concert of the season will conclude with the Stars and Stripes Forever. This is the concert where we will award our scholarship to a deserving high school member of our band and several of our musicians will be conducting the group.
The wide variety of music is certain to appeal to all audience members and it is a not to be missed concert of the newest concert band in Southwest Florida. Masks are recommended at this time. Please check our website for updates.
All concerts are FREE with donations accepted. Information on the group, our scholarship program, and other performances can be found on our website.
