Holiday Concert with the Chelmsford Community Band

Get your holiday cheer properly established with the Chelmsford Community Concert Band at their annual holiday concert Sunday, December 15th, at 2pm at McCarthy Middle School. This year’s program includes the requisite favorites like Leroy Anderson’s “Sleigh Ride” and the magnificently powerful “Russian Christmas Music” by Alfred Reed, but there are also multiple pieces that switch things up.&nbsp; The band will be casting familiar songs into a minor key with Lovrien’s “Minor Alterations,” mashing them up in “Stars and Stripes for Christmas,” and casting them into a New Orleans jazz feel with “A New Orleans Nutcracker Suite.” This performance also features stunning vocal solos and is not to be missed. Admission to the concert is free, but donations are always very gratefully accepted so that the band can continue to operate.&nbsp; Suggested donations are $10 for adults and $20 for families.&nbsp; There will also be a fundraising raffle of fun seasonal items and baked goods available for an additional donation. Having recently celebrated its golden anniversary, the Chelmsford Community Band has a 60-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.&nbsp; They are supported by grants from the Mass Cultural Council, local towns, and your donations.&nbsp; Follow them on Facebook, Instagram, or BlueSky, and find them online at <a href="http://www.chelmsfordcommunityband.com">www.chelmsfordcommunityband.com</a>.
