12th Annual Children’s Halloween Concert

Thursday, October 3rd, 2019

Now that October is here, the band is gearing up for their most favorite time of the year! No, not Christmas (yet)! We’re talking about our annual Halloween concert in the Creepy Cafeteria. You have never been to a concert band like this! Not only will there be the great music that you’ve come to expect from the band, but there will also be tons of stuff to keep the kiddos entertained. We have actors, sing-alongs, a costume parade, and even some activities right during the music! Loads of audience participation makes this concert one unique experience.

Here’s the music on our stands at the moment:

Looney Tunes Melody, Carl Stalling
Superhero Medley, John Ottman, Christophe Beck, Hans Zimmer, Alan Silvestri, arr. Brian Sadler
Little Mermaid Medley, Howard Ashman, Alan Menken, arr. Takashi Hoshide
Is There Any Ragtime on Mars?, Stephen Kent Goodman
Theme from Spider-Man, Robert J Harris, Paul Francis Webster, arr. Jay Bocook
The Jungle Book, arr. John Moss
Let It Go, Kristen Anderson-Lopez, Robert Lopez, arr. Paul Murtha
Star Trek Through the Years, arr. John Moss

P.S. If you’re interested in joining, the Wauwatosa Community Band is always seeking new members. Skill level is not a requirement; the band is open to anyone. Play your main instrument or learn a secondary instrument (several of us do), so all are welcome. Please use our contact form if you’re interested in additional information.
