[Trombone-l] Ohlone Wind Orchestra in Concert in Fremont, CA Sunday March 9

[John Monroe]

Dear All,

The Ohlone Wind Orchestra, under the direction of Tony Clements, has  
an exciting concert coming up on Sunday, March 9th at 1:00 pm!

The concert features soloists from the band (John Monroe, trombone;  
John Taylor, tuba; and Ken Walter, trumpet) playing Floyd Werle's  
"Concertino for Three Brass and Band", plus Paul Hindemith's "March  
from Symphonic Metamorphoses", James Barnes' "Fantasy Variations on a  
Theme" by Nicolo Paganini, Philip Spark's "Dance Movements", Brant  
Karrick's spectacular "Mambo Furioso", and Russel Bennet's arrangement  
of selections from Gershwin's "Porgy and Bess".

Here's what Floyd Werle had to say after attending Monday's dress  
rehearsal:

"Monday night was one
of the truly great events I've experienced since I
became a Californian. The group sounded splendid and I
know the concert will go fine. Your reading and
performance of the Concertino ranks right up there
with the original USAF Band rendition in '66. Do keep
me posted on future programs; I would love to attend."

The concert starts at 1 pm (a little earlier than usual) at the Smith  
Center on Ohlone College (43600 Mission Blvd., Fremont).  Tickets are  
$15 for Adults, $10 Seniors and students, $8 for youth under 12.  More  
Information regarding tickets is available on line through www.smithcenterpresents.com

If you are in the area come on out and here this great band.

Sincerely,

John Monroe
