BALTIMORE COUNTY, MD – June 5, 2015 – The Baltimore Symphonic Band (BSB), a 50 piece musical ensemble based at CCBC Essex, today announced that it will perform a concert at South Valley Park, 19003 Watkins Mill Road, Montgomery Village on Sunday June 7 at noon as a part of Maryland Community Band Day.
Maryland Community Band Day is an annual festival that brings together community bands from all over the state of Maryland for a full day of performances and camaraderie.
“Band Day was started by the Baltimore Symphonic Band and the Southern Maryland Community Band,” said Cindy Suchanek, president and concert master of the Baltimore Symphonic Band. “Each year, the festival moves to a different community, and the venues over the years have included Baltimore’s Inner Harbor and Annapolis.”
BSB will perform John Williams’ “Olympic Fanfare,” Aaron Copland’s “Hoe Down,” Arnold Freed’s “Win, Place or Show,” Leroy Anderson’s “Home Stretch,” John Philip Sousa’s “The National Game” and more.
