Silver & Gold Band plays today at mall
|
The 45-member band will take center stage for a performance that will include over 20 Christmas favorites including “Jingle Bells,” “Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer” and “Let It Snow.”
“This is the third year we’ve done this performance and the crowds keep getting bigger,” said band director Mike Chilcutt. “We’ll play a whole slew of Christmas tunes.”
Chilcutt said the Silver & Gold began practicing its Christmas play list in early November. He said he’s well pleased with the progress and is confident the band will deliver a lively performance the whole family can enjoy.
Also of significance is the release of the band’s first-ever CD. The CD, composed entirely of Christmas music, will be on sale during today’s performance for $10. This is a limited edition of which 500 copies have been made.
Chilcutt said the Silver & Gold Band is already planning a second CD to be released next year. This CD will feature traditional tunes, not Christmas music.
