The Creative Arts Guild and the First Baptist Church of Dalton will welcome the Roman Festival Brass to town on Saturday, June 28 at 7 p.m.
The Roman Festival Brass was founded in 2000 by conductor Jerry Pollard of Rome to create an opportunity for outstanding brass players in the Northwest Georgia area to study and perform brass band literature.
They have participated in the Great American Brass Band Festival in Danville, Ky., and at the Salute to American Armed Forces in Big Canoe. Most recently they competed at the North American Brass Band Finals Competition in Indiana.
The band usually gives three performances per year in Rome as well as several concerts each summer at venues around the state. This performance will mark their third appearance in Dalton and they will perform at the First Baptist Church of Dalton.
The concert will include patriotic and traditional favorites. Admission is free. Donations will be accepted.
The concert is sponsored by the Creative Arts Guild and First Baptist Church of Dalton. For more information call Creative Arts Guild music director Lisa Elders at 706-259-1822 or email music@creativeartsguild.org.
This program is supported in part by the Georgia Council for the Arts (GCA) through the appropriations of the Georgia General Assembly. GCA also receives support from its partner agency, the National Endowment for the Arts.
