We had such a good time last year, we're doing it again. Dr. Harlan Parker will return to conduct.

This year the band will perform at the Rouse Theater, 5460 Trumpeter Road, Columbia, MD 21044.

This event is free and open to the public. As of now we have six tubas!

Second Suite in F (Holst)

O Magnum Mysterium (Lauredsen)

See you all there!

Cool... I played with Neal for many years. Also, I went to college with Pat... back when he was primarily a clarinet player (and an excellent one at that)!

The concert went very well. I'm looking forward to next year. We had an excellent tuba section- photo is on page 23 of this thread:
