BANDTOGETHER'S FALL/HALLOWEEN CONCERT

On Saturday, October 15, BandTogether, the St. Louis GLBTA community concert band, kicks off its 9th performance season by presenting its annual Fall/Halloween concert. This event features a variety of Halloween-inspired selections for wind ensemble (with the occasional sound of hanging pots and pans) ranging from classic Rachmaninoff to totally fun fare, and even (gasp) a musical attack by Godzilla! John Williams will also "make an appearance" on the program for a night of performance you won't soon forget. Check out the Band's costumes for the second half of the concert!

If you cannot make this performance, please pass the word on to someone you know who might enjoy a relaxing evening of enjoyable music in a comfortable atmosphere. Word-of-mouth continues to be our best source of advertising. Thank you for your support!

As always, the concert is open to the public and admission is FREE. Your tax-free donations and applause are welcome and greatly appreciated.
