The Tacoma Concert Band proudly presents SOUSA SPECTACULAR! The Tacoma
Concert Band returns to the Pantages Theater on February 29th to
present SOUSA SPECTACULAR, its biennial salute to John Philip Sousa
and his band. This popular concert brings back the style and music
that was performed by the Sousa Band, which toured America and Europe
at the turn of the last century. The concert program includes music
composed and transcribed by Sousa, as well as works by his
contemporaries Percy Grainger, Richard Wagner, Georges Bizet, Karl
King, and Sir Arthur Sullivan. As a special treat, the program
features soloists Morris Northcutt on cornet, Bill Dyer on Trombone,
and popular mezzo-soprano Elizabeth Galafa, as well as a few of
Sousa’s lesser-known marches that YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD BEFORE! Join
us to be part of the exhilarating concert experience that the Sousa
Band brought to millions around the world as we step back in time to
honor the most celebrated composer and band leader in American
history. The entire family will enjoy this ever-popular concert, and
