<br>
Klezmer is “music of uncontrollable joy fused with irrevocable pathos. Echoing the sounds of its long-lost homeland of Eastern Europe, it mirrors and interweaves with the musical kaleidoscope of its new home in America.” (Inna Barmash, Why Klezmer? - <a href="http://www.princeton.edu/~klez/klezmer.shtml">http://www.princeton.edu/~klez/klezmer.shtml</a>). <br>

<br>
I went to the February 18 concert of the very excellent Virginia Grand Military Band thanks to the courtesy tickets they provided to members of MVCB. I was very impressed with their mistake-free performance and intonation that was so precise that overtones swirled through the auditorium at Hayfield High School in Alexandria. Gordon had been a member of the band for several years and they presented his composition “Current Events” as part of their program. <br>

There are numerous success stories in the band movement, but
many community bands flourish briefly, and then decline in the face of personnel
pressures. Traditional bands that have
survived through the years and maintained the valuable and artistic repertoire
of the adult band (distinct from the educational repertoire) need to adapt and
grow as times change if they are not to dwindle and perish. Because society as a whole no longer places a
premium on adult band membership, the key issue is attracting and retaining
enough of the right players to allow a band to perpetuate its special
activities.</div>

</i><br>RB Hall lived during the heyday of town bands. Every town had a band of some kind, and larger towns and cities often had several competing bands. These bands needed instructors, as well as fresh music to play. Before the advent of instrumental music education in the schools, participation in a community band was the primary means of learning to play a band instrument. Oftentimes Itinerant music teacher were professional bandsman who offered private lessons on all instruments and rehearsed the town band and other musical groups.

Cornet Band is currently in rehearsals for its 128th consecutive year. We
are a small community band performing at functions throughout the summer,
mainly in the Mount Airy - Damascus - Monrovia area. While we're small, we
need more musicians! Our music may not be as challenging as Poet and
Peasant or Rolling Thunder, but we have a lot of fun. A great way to keep
your chops up over the summer, or bring yourself up to speed on a second (or
third, or fourth) instrument. Have a high school student in the family?
Students can earn service hours for performances! We especially
need horns and low brass, but all instruments are welcome.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i>Contributed by R. Kelly Wagner</i><br>
<br>
The annual Navy Band Saxophone Symposium was held this year on January 20 and 21st at George Mason University in Fairfax; I have tried to attend this every year since we moved to Maryland, although in January 2011 I missed it. So it was good to get back to atttending this year. The Symposium follows a similar format each year, with the events starting on Friday afternoon, a big concert by the full Navy Band on Friday night, more events all day Saturday including master classes and lectures, and a big concert by the Navy Commodores (jazz band) on Saturday night. The big evening concerts have lots of guest soloists, who usually are also presenters of master classes and/or solo recitals during the daytime events.<br>

It’s wonderful to see so many people here to celebrate Gordon’s life. I’m John King, president of the Montgomery Village Community Band, a 70-member all-volunteer ensemble that rehearses Wednesday nights in Montgomery Village and performs concerts throughout the area. Gordon directed the band for the last 13 years.<br>
