Sands Point Preserve Conservancy presents an afternoon of music for audiences of all ages when the Northwinds Symphonic Band returns Sunday, June 7, at 3 p.m. to the Black Box Theatre in Castle Gould.
Led by conductors Helen P. Bauer and Concetta Stevens, the annual &ldquo;Broadway, Movies and Light Classics&rdquo; concert offers a family-friendly afternoon of music.
The program includes selections from Cyberworld 3D transcribed by Northwinds Band member Zachery Dornfeld, a collection of John Williams favorites from Star Wars
and Superman, and Salute to the Cinema, a medley of movie themes arranged by Long Island composer Carl Strommen. Satchmo!, a spirited tribute to legendary trumpet player Louis Armstrong, features songs from films across the generations. Vocal highlights include Let&rsquo;s Call the Whole Thing Off, popularized by Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire in Shall We Dance, along with Accentuate the Positive. Broadway actor Karen Murphy and tenor Joe Stroppel perform both selections, arranged by Long Island composer Ray Osnato.
Broadway numbers include The Golden Age of Broadway, celebrating the works of Rodgers and Hammerstein, along with Marching Down Broadway, featuring songs from The Music Man, Oliver! and Wildcat.
Other highlights include Stroppel singing Con Te Partiro (Time to Say Goodbye), made famous by Andrea Bocelli, trumpet soloist Caitlin Mallon capturing the warmth of a Latin sunset in Latin Sun, and percussionist Ryan Mitchell bringing rhythmic precision and flair on marimba with Leroy Anderson&rsquo;s Fiddle Faddle.
Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy on the grounds of the Preserve before the performance. The concert features approximately one hour of music and a 15-minute intermission. 
Tickets are $10 per person; non-members of the Conservancy must pay a $15 parking fee. Tickets are available on the day of the performance, payable by cash at the door or by credit card in the Welcome Center.

Northwinds Symphonic Band Returns to Sands Point Preserve June 7

This is right in Port Washington. Where I live. It used to have beautiful hiking trails surrounding all of what you see. Hempstead Harbor, Harbor Links Golf Course, Sea Cliff, Long Island Sound, Westchester and even Rockland County on a clear day. It&rsquo;s a shame that this once beautiful oasis is no more. &nbsp;It is between Salem School and Harbor Links Golf Course.<a href="https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b0wtB1wqUnDwpNN5DqGY-BYQ" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">share.icloud.com/photos/0b0wtB1wqUnDwpNN5DqGY-BYQ</a>

Rain or shine, the concert features live music and a laid-back atmosphere either on the Great Lawn, or in the event of inclement weather, inside the Preserve&rsquo;s Black Box Theater. Attendees can bring picnic dinners or enjoy offerings from food trucks during the performance.
On July 12 at 3 p.m., the Preserve&rsquo;s acclaimed Four Seasons in Music series continues with &ldquo;Summer&rsquo;s Day,&rdquo; pairing world-class chamber music with poetry and storytelling under Artistic Director Kathryn Lockwood.
