The Boston City Band, Inc., a local 25 piece concert ensemble, will grace Foxborough's Orpheum Theatre stage at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 31, 2007. With their complement of woodwinds, percussion, and brass instruments, the band's eclectic musical selections are designed to give audiences of all ages a musically interesting and informative experience. Musical selections will include show tunes, marches, classical pieces, selections from popular
movie scores, and traditional patriotic songs. Often seen performing on town greens or in area parades, the band always provides a program of diverse genres that are enjoyed by all!

Tickets are available in advance through Cindi's Jewelry Shop (40 Central Street) and The Little Shop (17 Bird Street) in downtown Foxborough and at the door the night of the concert.

After the program, you are invited to join us for a reception and refreshments at the church - free and open to all.
