The Richmond Pops Band is a community based organization that has been playing a variety of music for Richmond audiences for over 45 years. This coming Monday evening (November 7th), they'll be presenting a special Veterans Day concert in the Altria Theater, with guest soloists Mike Waddell (euphonium) and Pablo Talamante (tenor). The evening will feature band classics, Broadway favorites and a tribute to the veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces.
I share with you excerpts from my recent chat with Music Director Earl Shaffer, who tells us more about Monday's program, the upcoming holiday concert and how you could be a part of the group!
Yours in good music,
Mike Goldberg Classical Host, VPM Music
