EDWARDSVILLE - The Edwardsville Municipal Band will present AUDIENCE FAVORITES—a program built entirely from the most popular selections chosen by audience members throughout the summer concert series. Performances will take place at the Cleaon Etzkorn Bandstand in City Park on Thursday, August 14 at 7:30 p.m. and as a bonus performance on Sunday, August 17 at 4:00 p.m. at Leclaire Park.
Each concert will feature a variety of styles, from classic marches and Broadway hits to movie themes, swing tunes, and American folk favorites—all chosen by concertgoers. The program will also spotlight the band’s talented Dixieland ensemble, featuring David Maloney on clarinet, Kevin Haddock on saxophone, Matt Mossinghoff on trumpet, Mark Haun on trombone, Noah Mabb on tuba, and Steve Wehling on drums.
