Westfield Community Band Spring Concert Begins 100TH Anniversary Celebration

Westfield Community Band Spring Concert Begins 100TH Anniversary Celebration.  

The concert will be held at Westfield High School on 04/29 beginning at 3 p.m.

The Westfield Community Band is under the direction of Dr. Thomas Connors. The afternoon’s concert will include a variety of symphonic works, including “Pineapple Poll”, which is a Givert and Sullivan inspired comic ballet, based on various Gilbert and Sullivan works from the late 1870’s, including the HMS Pinafore. The featured work for the performance will be “Sinfonia No. 4” by New Jersey Composer, Bruce Yurko.  Band President, Barry Rosenberg noted, “with the approaching 100th anniversary concert season, the band was seeking to perform a  composition that represented concert music in its most current form”, which inspired the incentive for the band to commission a brand new composition, “Sinfonia N. 4”.
