Encore Concert Band - Fall Concert

ENCORE CONCERT BAND TO BEGIN 14TH
SEASON WITH FALL CONCERT


The Encore Concert Band will begin its 14th season with a Fall Concert on Sunday, October 21, 2012 at 3:00pm at Mokena Junior High School, 19815 Kirkstone Way in Mokena. This free concert will feature a wide variety of selections, ranging from classical to marches. For further
information about the Fall Concert or the Encore Concert Band and the complete concert schedule, please visit www.encoreband.org.


Now in its 14th season, the 50+-piece band is conducted by Music Director and Founder, Bill Schuetter, and has developed quite a loyal following in the south suburbs. The
Band has also been featured in many Chicago Tribune articles highlighting outstanding suburban arts groups. Along with concerts throughout the winter
months such as the Orland Park Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony, the Band also plays for the Governor’s State University Commencement Ceremonies, the
Evergreen Park Summer Concert Series, and the Mokena 4th of July Concert and Fireworks, held annually in Mokena.  The band also continues to play outdoor concerts in the southwest suburbs throughout the summer months. Band members range in age from high school
students to adults, and musicians interested in joining are encouraged to sit in with the band at a weekly rehearsal on Thursday nights at 7:00 p.m. at Mokena Junior High School in Mokena. For information on scheduling a concert in your
area or joining the band, please call Rachel Ozark at (708) 437-7051, send an e-mail to info@encoreband.org, or visit their website at www.encoreband.org.
