[BEAVERTON, OREGON] The Beaverton Community Band (Martin Sobelman, Conductor) will hold its Winter Concert on Sunday, March 19th, 2023, at 3:00 P.M. at the Jesuit High School Performing Arts Center, 9000 SW Beaverton-Hillsdale Hwy, Portland, OR. Beaverton Community Band proudly presents a musical retrospective about “ordinary” people from our past that did their duty, stayed true to their beliefs, and persevered in the face of adversity. “Remembrance, Gratitude, & Honor” highlights, through music, the contributions of four men, Johannes Brahms, Abraham Lincoln, Aaron Copland, and Nelson Mandela. Our musical journey includes “Distant Land” by John Rutter, “Blessed Are They” by Johannes Brahms, and a double brass quintet playing “Semper Gratus” by Northwest composer and trumpeter Kevin McKee, and many more. We also welcome Hale Thornburgh to narrate “Lincoln Portrait” by Aaron Copland. Beaverton Community Band is a proud member of the Beaverton Chamber of Commerce
