The band finished out the year to a packed concert hall as we shared the stage with the brilliant Massanutten Youth Brass Band under the direction of Rhonda Stees. Both bands have shared performances in the past, but this was the youth band's first time in the Forbes Center for the Performing Arts. The youth band's program included Fanfare Prelude (Curnow), March from A Moorside Suite (Holst), Ar Lan y Môr (arr. Baker) and A Cambrian Suite (M. Ball). The second half of the concert featured the JMU Brass Band performing Jupiter (Allan), Concertino (Shostakovich), Zelda (Code) with soloist Matt Harper, Brillante (Graham) with soloists Aaron Campbell and Joel Collier, and The Year of the Dragon (Sparke). The concert finale showcased combined bands performing the exciting Festmusik der Stadt Wien (R. Strass)
