American Variations - Celebrating USA's 250th

The Reading Community Concert Band will be celebrating USA's 250th with a special concert titled "American Variations" at 3 pm on Sunday, May 10 at the First Congregational Church of Reading UCC.  The music will feature a cross section of classic American composers from the 20th and 21st Centuries.  Many will feature well -known American musical themes and ideas played in different settings.  

American Variations is a program celebrating the diverse array of American musical styles and composers.  Much like America's motto:  E Pluribus Unum (Out of many, one) the concert will showcase of how the many different backgrounds of our people have influenced the development of all forms of American music. It will celebrate the extraordinary creativity and innovation of American composers.
