Campbell River Community Band playing Sunday night

Conductor Kolya Kowalchuk and the 30 piece Campbell River Community Band will be taking the audience on a tour of the world at their annual spring concert this weekend.

The band will be playing selections from Albania, Spain, Japan, Newfoundland, the Caribbean as well as the more fantastical Middle Earth.

The selections range in style from Italian concertos, to folk songs to ballroom dancing music.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the band. Both founding members are still with the group.

Families with small children are encouraged to attend the show at the  Maritime Heritage Centre, as the program is short enough to keep even the little ones entertained.

Admission is by donation. Proceeds will be going towards the cost of renting the band room at Carihi as well as the groups insurance and music.

There will be refreshments served after the event, provided by the band members.
