SUMMARY:Musical Tribute for 9/11
DESCRIPTION:The Allen Community Band honors the 25 th anniversary of the 9-
 11 attack on our nation with a musical tribute with a free concert at 7:30
  p.m. Friday\, September 11\, at the Allen Public Library\, 300 N. Allen D
 r. The program will offer a combination of patriotic selections and pieces
  written specifically for the September 11 remembrance.  In addition\, the
  award-winning San Antonio Express journalist William Luther\, who was in
  New York City to cover the tragedy\, will share his recollections.   \nSo
 me of the notable musical selections for this day include a version of Tap
 s arranged by band member Derek Molacek and performed by trumpet soloist K
 evin Purcell\, the official Department of Defense version of The Star-Span
 gled Banner performed by all U.S. military bands\, and songs composed as t
 ributes to victims of September 11 th . \nThe latter tunes include A Hymn
  for the Lost and the Living by Eric Ewazen and Voices Echo \, a two-piece
  movement by Benjamin Boone. The former\, featuring trumpet soloist Stepha
 nie Waterman\, is a highly expressive work for wind ensembles that opens w
 ith a moving trumpet solo and builds into a profound memorial. The latter
  is a two-movement piece that begins with the aggressive and asymmetrical
  “Attack\,” followed by “Aftermath” that provides a somber\, reflective sp
 ace.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        \nAnother highlight of the band’s performance will be Carmen Dragon’
 s highly emotional arrangement of America the Beautiful . One of the most
  dramatic versions of this patriotic standard ever written\, it opens with
  the full ensemble followed by an extended section featuring the woodwinds
 \, with brass and percussion added to build to an exciting and dynamic end
 ing. \nCall 214-509-4911 for additional information.\nAllen Public Library
