The Band’s last concert in this season will be Wednesday, May 17, 2017 at 7:30 PM at Colonie Central High School. This is our annual POPS Concert, where our Music Director and Principal Conductor, Doug Dougherty, has selected pieces based on film and the Broadway stage, marches, and some light classical faire. Well know names such as Frank Sinatra, Harold Arlen, and Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong are represented. The soloist will be Beth Gurzler from the Band's flute section playing "Gypsy Song and Finale" from Carmen Fantaisie, based on the opera by Georges Bizet. We will continue to honor our late Founding Conductor, Henry Carr, with the F.E. Bigelow march "Our Director".
