Review for Chester County Concert Band, West Chester, PA, USA
As a member of the Chester County Concert Band, I attend weekly rehearsals in preparation for spring and fall concerts, as well as an extensive summer concert series. This is a great bonding experience for the group internally (all volunteer members gathering for one major passion), as well as the group bonding with an audience. It is touching to see the community come out to listen to a live performing arts group - I feel that is something our generation is losing out on and therefore the live arts are falling to the wayside. I know our audiences love hearing the group play, and it is especially touching when we play for those less fortunate than us. For instance, we have played Christmas and summer concerts at the Melmark home in Bryn Mawr, and knowing the struggles these challenged people have been through makes you feel even better because you've brightened someone else's day. I hope we continue to return there.
