Wellesley Town Band to perform spring concert featuring marches, Broadway tunes & more

April 1, 2025 by admin

Wellesley Town Band Spring Concert: April 6, 3pm, Wellesley High School Auditorium

Welcome spring with music the whole family will love Tap your feet to popular marches, traditional tunes, concert band classics, Broadway show hits, and more, including:

Prelude and Fugue in B-Flat Major by J.S. Bach: This arrangement for symphonic band imitates the rich texture and full sound of a concert pipe organ.

Shenandoah: Enjoy the beauty of free-flowing American folk melodies. Use your imagination to hear the sounds of nature, especially a river.

Lincolnshire Posy: This well-loved piece draws on British folk songs, which the composer referred to as “a bunch of musical wildflowers.”

Overture in B-Flat: Composer Caesar Giovanni was a pianist and music director at top Hollywood studios in the 1960s, where he played with Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, and many other Hollywood stars.

West Side Story: Fill your heart with “Tonight,” snap your fingers to “Cool,” and enjoy other tunes from this classic Broadway show.

Barnum and Bailey’s Favorite: Picture acrobats, elephants, and exciting circus acts with this “Granddaddy” of Circus Marches.

The Liberty Bell: Sousa named this march “Liberty Bell” after the Chicago unveiling of a huge painting of the bell and his son’s marching in a parade honoring this historic landmark.

The concert is free, with complimentary refreshments following the show.
