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.
