Lachine Concert Band is preparing its Christmas Concert

The program for the Christmas Concert will include a variety of pieces in a range of styles appropriate for this festive season. This year, the Lachine Concert Band will be joined by more than 35 signers of the Vocal Group Les Baladins de Laval for different Christmas numbers including Handel’s Hallelujah from the Messiah. But no concert by the band would be complete without some jazz, blues or “Big Band” era numbers.

Membership in the band is open to anyone with a keen appreciation of music and reasonable ability to play an instrument. No auditions are required. If you are interested in joining the band, simply come to any rehearsal, play along for an evening, and see whether you feel comfortable with the music and the level of ability required.

So mark this date on your calendar: Sunday, December 18th, 2:00 P.M., at l’Entrepôt, 2901 Boulevard St-Joseph, Lachine. There will be a very nominal charge of $10 per person, but free for children under 10 years of age; the proceeds help to defray the band’s expenses.
