Chesapeake Silver Cornet Brass Band coming to Berlin

(July 6, 2017) The Chesapeake Silver Cornet Brass Band will perform during the Berlin Heritage Foundation’s second concert on the lawn this season on Sunday, July 9 at 6 p.m.  This concert is co-sponsored by Berlin Main Street and the Town of Berlin.
The Chesapeake Brass Band, founded in 1996, is one of the few all-brass concert bands in the United States. The band emulates the British bands formed during the industrial revolution, and also draws inspiration from the Sousa bands popular in the early 1900s.  The band is based in Newark, Delaware and draws its 35 members from Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland and Pennsylvania. The summer concerts feature marches, patriotic numbers, show tunes, big band, swing and blues.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a chair and a picnic to enjoy the free concert on the lawn of the Calvin B. Taylor House Museum at 208 North Main Street in Berlin.
The Taylor House Museum is open through the end of October on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Group tours are available anytime by appointment. For more information contact the Taylor Museum at 410-641-1019 or visit www.taylorhousemuseum.org.
