It’s the last week of our season, so if you haven’t made it to a municipal band concert yet this summer, this is the week to check us out! We have a fantastic program this week with a little something for everyone: music from the hit musical Hamilton, a medley of music from Pixar films including Toy Story, Up, The Incredibles, Cars, and Ratatouille, and a fantastic clarinet solo from University of Iowa clarinet professor Jorge Montilla. Gather your family and friends, a picnic, and join us at the McGrath Amphitheater Wednesday at 7:30!
