8th Annual TubaChristmas- Bel Air, MD, Sunday, Dec. 21, 2014

Post by Heavy_Metal »

Once again, we'll be hosting TubaChristmas at the Bel Air Armory, 37 N. Main St, Bel Air, MD. Registration starts at 2:30 PM, rehearsal 3-4:30 PM, performance 5-6 PM. You'll need to bring a music stand.

This is a great opportunity for musicians in Northeastern Maryland, South Central PA and surrounding areas. We'll play INSIDE the Armory rather than outdoors, and sitting instead of standing. We hear Santa might make a guest appearance too!

And once again, fellow TubeNetter Randy Harrison (hbcrandy) will conduct.

Here are some pics from past years:

We understand the Baltimore TubaChristmas was cancelled due to bad weather. For those of you who were going to play that one, come play with us!

I saw that the Baltimore one was cancelled, what a bummer (but what horrible weather!). Get ready for the largest Bel Air concert ever!
