This week, the Cedar Rapids Municipal Band showcases the winner of their annual Young Artist competition, recent Linn-Mar graduate Arjun Palaniappan on a composition that Steve Shanley says is about as close as you can get to Toto’s “Africa” without having to give David Paich and Jeff Porcaro a writing credit. Also on the program a jazz-based suite composed by Shostakovich. Come early on Sunday and hear a prelude concert from the New Horizons Band.
June 22 at Noelridge Park, June 26 at Bever Park, 7:30pm each night. Concert program and more info at www.crmuniband.org.
