Big melodies. Big energy. All American.

With special guests the University of Miami Frost Band of the Hour lead by former GGPB Music Director Craig McKenzie.

This red-white-and-blue romp celebrates the bold spirit of American music — from the thrilling sweep of A Patriotic Salute and the swagger of Raiders March to the toe-tapping snap of Begin the Begine. Broadway shines in selection from West Side Story.

Principal trumpet Mark Nemoyten and vocalist Ariana LaMark will be featured in the Land of Make Believe by the late great Chuck Mangione

It’s a star-spangled showcase of the sounds that define us—played with pride and plenty of punch.
