Ridgewood NJ, December has been an action-packed and memorable month for the Ridgewood High School Marching Band, as students showcased their talent and holiday spirit at various events and performances.
Ridgewood NJ, For those who are new to TUBACHRISTMAS, it is an event that allows tuba and euphonium players of all ages and abilities to come together to play holiday music specifically arranged for their instruments. The first TUBACHRISTMAS took place at New York City’s Rockefeller Plaza Ice Rink on Sunday, December 22, 1974. Since then TUBACHRISTMAS events have been held all over the world.
This year’s event in conjunction with the second concert in the Ridgewood Concert Band’s (RCB)34th Season promises to be an exciting night of music for audience and musicians alike. TUBACHRISTMAS participants will rehearse and then will be invited to enjoy the RCB portion of the program, which will include Commando March (Barber), Yiddish Dances, and Nutcracker Suite (Tchaikovsky). Tuba soloist Mike Salzman will also be featured. The concert will conclude with the TUBACHRISTMAS performance of carols arranged for tuba and euphoniums.
