Past Events

The November 17 concert will concentrate on music of, by and about children.  We will be joined by the children of the Kearsarge Regional Elementary School at New London in several numbers including "Mah Na, Mah Na", "The Waltzing Cat", and "Do Re Mi" from the Sound of Music.  Crystal Carr will play the "Tuba Rhapsody" by Clare Grundman.  The featured number will be "Little Train in the Brazillian Countryside" by Hector Villa-Lobos.  

Our fourth annual "March Madness" concert will feature toe-tapping marches from all over the world: England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Norway, Mexico, Poland, Russia, Latvia -- and of course a number of good old American marches.

The KCB continues our tradition of featuring "swing band" music at our May concert, complete with vocals on several of the songs by guest soloist Kate Matterson.  We'll toss in a march and a classical piece or two for balance (see our potential playlist) in what promises to be a fun musical afternoon. View the event poster here.

The KCB will join with the Hopkinton Town Band and the Upper Valley Community Band for a ceremony marking the completion of the final section of the rail trail that connects Concord to White River Junction, Vermont. (Here's a link to a newspaper article on the project.) The combined bands will play at 9:30 and again at 11:00, with various festivities and visits by dignitaries sandwiched between the music.

Our 2014 "Fall" concert (really late fall) will feature music from and about Spain, along with a few other pieces in keeping with the season.  See a partial list of some of the music currently in our folders.  Join us in the gym at the New London Outing Club for an enjoyable afternoon of song.  Olé!

This one's all about the marches (with a few other genres tossed in for good measure).   The concert will be held at the New London Outing Club's indoor facility on Cougar Court (a change of venue from what had been previously announced), with a 2:00 downbeat on Sunday, March 8.
