Editor, The Times
Since coming to Clearwater in 2007, I have thought many times, “Where is the community band/orchestra?” (Who ever heard of a May Day parade without a band?)
I have greatly missed the opportunity to play in such a band, having over the years played in bands as large as 43-piece.
I finally decided to investigate the feasibility of starting such a band in Clearwater.
The opportunities to serve the community are endless, for example, May Day parade, July 1 concerts, music in the park and Christmas concerts.
Is there anyone out there who plays a woodwind instrument (i.e. sax, clarinet, oboe, etc), a brass instrument (i.e. trumpet, trombone, tuba, euphonium, baritone, etc.) flute, piccolo, percussion, etc.?
It could also incorporate strings (optional), which would make it an orchestra. These would include violin, cello, viola, upright bass, etc.
If you can read music, play such an instrument and are interested, please contact me at 250-674-4008 or email calvinlutz2@gmail.com
