The Pomona College Band will offer a program of classics, including a rousing rendition of Leonard Bernstein's Wrong-Note Rag, and modern works for the genre. Join us for music by Carolyn Bremer, Benjamin Britten, Martin Lauridsen, William Schuman, and John Philip Sousa.One of the oldest college bands in the country, the Pomona College Band was founded in 1909. Led by emeritus professor Graydon Beeks, the band’s membership is drawn from students, faculty, and staff of The Claremont Colleges and members of the local community.
