The Band’s Independence Day program of patriotic American music, America Forever, will be played at the Picnic in the Park concert in Concord on July 4 and at Fruitlands on Thursday July 5. July 12, For Kids of All Ages, includes familiar and catchy children’s tunes as well as Disney and other movie music, and will be directed by the Band’s assistant conductor Steve Barbas.

Except as noted, the concerts are conducted by the Band’s Music Director Jim O’Dell.
