“It’s going to be a good one,” says Steve Shanley on week six of the Cedar Rapids Municipal Band’s 2023 season. Ryan Smith will be featured with a classical saxophone solo and the band will present a challenging piece by Valerie Coleman that mixes styles from Latin jazz to Turkish music.
Other selections this week include an arrangement from Disney’s “Obi Wan Kenobi” series, a Duke Ellington Medley, and Leroy Anderson’s “Belle of the Ball.”
July 12 at McGrath Amphitheater and July 16 at Ellis Park at 7:30pm.
