Winter in New England is not for the faint-hearted, but Robert Frost wrote, “Yet all the precedent is on my side: / I know that winter death has never tried / The earth but it has failed,” and he asserted that by April, nothing will be left white. In the meantime, forget about the cold season and enjoy a concert by the Chelmsford Community Concert Band, which will be performing at 2pm on Sunday, March 10, at the Chelmsford High School’s Performing Arts Center. The program they will present is varied and broad, including two marches composed 100 years apart, memorial music celebrating the joy of a life well lived, a fantastic latin flute duet, and selections from the Sound of Music.
Admission to the concert is free, but donations are always very gratefully accepted so that the band can continue to operate. Suggested donations are $10 for adults and $20 for families. If the concert leaves you peckish, they will have a table of baked goods you can take home for an additional donation.
Having recently celebrated its golden anniversary, the Chelmsford Community Band has a 65-piece concert band and a 20-piece jazz ensemble made of dedicated volunteer musicians with a proud tradition of bringing live musical performances to this community since 1972. They are supported by multiple Mass Cultural Council grants, including one for Cultural Sector Recovery. Follow them on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter, and find them online at www.chelmsfordcommunityband.com.
