The Laguna Concert Band and Laguna Beach Elementary Music Program combined on June 6, 2016 to perform a joint music performance of Star Wars as the Grande Finale as part of the schools end-of-the-year concert performance.
The "Star Wars Medley" was arranged by James H. Burden, with special arrangements for the elementary school students by Laguna Concert Band board member, Jennifer Baker. The concert was held at the Thurston Middle School gymnasium, 2100 Park Avenue, Laguna Beach.
In the summer of 2014 the Laguna Concert Band expanded its Board of Directors to include a Director of Educational Outreach, specifically to promote collaboration with the local school music community.
Over the past two years, the Concert Band has focused on special events with LBUSD resulting in a December 2014 joint performance with the Thurston Middle School Band at Laguna’s Holiday Hospitality Night and a February 2015 performance with LBHS instrumentalists (wind ensemble and jazz) alongside the Laguna Concert Band—Lee Rocker program at the Laguna Playhouse.
The Laguna Concert Band also recognizes and awards yearly scholarships to senior graduates of the LBHS Instrumental Music
Program.
This summer, the Concert Band will have open enrollment to students of all ages in a first-ever community summer program, culminating in special performances in August. For more information about our ensemble, you can email: LagunaConcertBand@gmail.com.
