Week 1 - June 16 Concert

The Chemical City Band will perform its first concert of the 2021 season on Wednesday, June 16 at the Nicholson-Guenther Community Band Shell in Midland's Central Park, starting at 7:30 PM.  In case of rain, the concert is cancelled, because we have no alternate performance site.  The band is back to its pre-Covid configuration, with 50 musicians and normal spacing.  However, there will be only a short intermission to minimize the spread of the virus and its variants among unvaccinated individuals.

Tom Broka is our guest conductor this evening.  The following selections will be presented:
