Music for a Festival
April 11 @ 7:00 pm -8:30 pm
BBNW welcomes the approach of spring with a program of vibrant music, bursting with life.
Our concert includes music by two composers from Washington: William Berry and Jeffrey Taylor. Jeffrey is a member of BBNW and wrote “I Come in Peace” specifically for performance as offertory music at services for BelPres. Williams work, “Spokane’s River” was commissioned by the Spokane British Brass Band and describes three locations along the river.
We are pleased to present our principal cornetist, Neil Hulbert, in the delightful solo, Napoli.
