Campolindo Hosts Professional Concert

Campolindo Music Boosters was honored to host an incredible concert on October 19, 2011. The Air Force Band of the Golden West graced us with their fine music, with Captain Haley Armstrong, Commander and Conductor at the podium. Joining them was the Walnut Creek Concert Band, led by our very own Harvey Benstein as Music Director and Conductor.
The USAF Band of the GW comes from Travis Air Force base and hails some of the finest musicians from around the country; while the Walnut Creek Concert Band is made up of professional musicians from around the SF Bay area.
Pieces performed jointly by the USAF Band and The Walnut Creek Concert Band were:
The Star Spangled Banner
The Cowboys by John Williams
Colonial Song by Percy Grainger
Bullets and Bayonets by John Philip Sousa
In Memorium by Keith Gates
Stars and Strips Forever by John Philip Sousa
The USAF Band closed the evening with these fine pieces:
Yiddish Dances by Adam Gorb
Sonata for Trumpet by Kent Kennan
Amparito Roca by Jaime Texidor
Armed Forces Salute
Circus Bee by Henry FIllmore
Students and adult members of the community were fortunate to enjoy this exceptional opportunity at no cost. Students were able to witness musicianship at a professional level in their very own CPAC. It was truly a night to remember.

2010 Welcome Back BBQ Photos!

“The BBQ was a blast. Mr. Benstein grilled some fantastic burgers and hot dogs. The weather was beautiful; it was sunny and warm, but not too hot. No one swam, but students definitely spent time getting to know fellow musicians that they had not met before. Also, students were able to catch up with old friends. 45 students were there. The poster we made and signed for the music program this year is creative and expressed the personality of campo music 2010-2011.” – Inno Asuncion, Music Council Co-President

Last night’s jazz concert offered plenty of musical fun, from a sizzling rendition of “Santa Baby” to a little Armstrong-esque “Struttin’ With Some Barbecue.” And photographer Milton Wong captured the evening for us in a series of great shots of both the Campolindo Jazz Band and guest artists Fundz Jazz. Enjoy the sneak peek here, then browse the entire “All That Jazz” photo album on Flickr.

We are indebted to the Pendergrass family – string bassist Kathryn’s dad photographed the concert and posted a gallery of images on Flickr.com so we could all enjoy them. Enjoy this sneak peek, then follow the link to see the rest, download whatever you’d like or order prints.

P.S. Many of you use Campo Music photos as part of your kids’ senior memory boards – and fine additions they are too! If you see a photo that you think you may want to use down the line, download it now so you’ve got it.
