The Band did an awesome job at Rose Hill today! I always receive several good comments about our participation. We've been performing for this event for well over twenty years. We had 47 musicians today and I seem to recall that we only had ten or twelve in the early years. A shout-out to Jerry for exploring a new seating location this year. It's always a challenge to try to avoid all of the gravestones, gopher holes, and tree roots.
Our next event is Tuesday, June 30th. That's a regular rehearsal night and the ODCB and Warrick County Schools are hosting a concert by the Indiana 38th Army Infantry Division Band from Indianapolis. The Army band is planning a full program of about 1 1/2 hours and at this point we are unsure exactly what role the ODCB will be playing. Jerry and the Army Band director are still working on the protocol. It's been pretty much decided that this will not be a side-by-side concert. If we do play a piece or three to open the program it will likely be something from the fireworks show we are doing in Henderson on July 3rd.
Here are the tunes you need to have on hand for the next rehearsals:
