Gogebic Range Concert Band Answers the "Call of the Wild"

 

Slide Show

The Gogebic Range Concert Band opened its 2010 season last night. The band performed at the Historic Ironwood Theater for the “Call of the Wild Concert” which is part of the annual Big Read program.

The group played a brand new program consisting of :
Niobrara River Sketches, Exhilaration , African Road, Cossack Dance, Beyond the Horizon, Into a Raging River

The songs were well chosen and the performance was great. We were told beforehand that this would be the best performance yet, and it was. The amazing thing is that this is an entirely new program and it was put together and performed so well in just four weeks.

We are looking forward to the GRCB begins its Summer Series
