Doors open at 1:00 PM, Astoria Tuba Quartet gives a prelude at 1:30 PM.
North Coast Symphonic Band starts at 2:00 PM. The music is all American, including several marches, selections from “Suite of Old American Dances”, and medleys including “Cole Porter” and “Music Man”. One of the pieces, Budget March, was written in 1903 by Albert William Utzinger for the Astoria Daily Budget newspaper.
There are two guest conductors from Linfield University, Seth Wollam, and Joan Paddock.
We will also feature our vocalist, Amanda McClure, and the Sparrow Dance Company from Astoria.
Tickets are available through the Liberty Theater, $15 for adults, and $8 for students.
This is our first concert since late 2019 due to COVID concerns. For safety, the Liberty is checking vaccine cards at the door. The audience will also be seated socially distant, and will be expected to wear a mask while in the theater.
