FOURTH OF JULY CONCERT

Our Fourth of July concert will be played outdoors in a stadium this year, weather permitting. This is one of those concerts where I feel you can truly appreciate the special enjoyment we as musicians can bring to the lives of others. Well loved patriotic songs being performed, fireworks going off during the 1812 Overture, how awesome is that. Of course as a musician, we kind of lose out a bit on not being able to view the overall effect as the people watching and listening, but being able to play and be part of something that brings so much enjoyment to others is pretty special. I hope that everyone has the opportunity to play or attend a Fourth of July concert to celebrate this special day for our country.

Have a great time, but be sure to have a stand setup that will keep your music flat if there is wind.
