Welcome to our 44th concert season!
Maestro Damien Crutcher returns for his
sixth season as the FCB Concert Band's resident conductor and music
director. Damien, as usual, has a great variety of exciting musical
ideas to challenge the 80-piece concert band this year, so look forward to
another great concert season in and around the Farmington area.
Variety and entertainment best describe what's
in store for you for 2009 - 2010. The fall season provides a great
backdrop for fight songs and cider along with cool costumes and Disney
tunes. In December we'll share a variety of new music and classic
compositions with a "Winter Blast". March finds us with two concerts
you wont want to miss -- one in Dearborn and one at home in Farmington
Hills.
Once again, the FCB Concert
Band is offered as a class in the music curriculum at Oakland Community
College -- Orchard Ridge. We'll be repeating our well-received "Sittin'
In" concert at OCC's Smith Auditorium in April, giving students as
well as the public, a chance to see how we rehearse and listen to the
musical results.
We are also excited to once again participate
in the Spring Farmington - Farmington Hills Festival of the Arts.
Finally, you won't want to miss the annual kick off to the Stars In the
Park concert series at the new pavilion in Heritage Park.
Our concert season is designed to bring
great music of all kinds to everyone in and around the Farmington
community. We hope to see you at our performances this season, and bring
along a friend or two. Experience the exciting sounds of The FCB!
-- Michael J. Wiese, President FCB Board of Directors
