The Interboro Community Band is playing its annual Spring Concert a week from Friday. This time, the ICB is promoting a monstrous event.
The concert is themed “Monsters, Myths, and Extraterrestrials”. In ICB’s announcement, they note “There might even be a ‘guest appearance’ by Godzilla.”
The performance is Friday, March 28th at 7:00 pm. As always, the community is invited to enjoy their show for free.
On ICB’s concert page, it lists the following pieces to be played:
- Release the Kraken
- Flight of the Piasa
- Adventures on Earth
- Of Monsters and Men
- Godzilla Eats Las Vegas
- Thriller
- King Kong
The band made of about sixty members (mostly adults) from Southborough and neighboring towns is led by Music Director Matt Lefebvre.
ICB was originally founded by an Algonquin music director over 50 years ago. (Until the pandemic, the band had rehearsed and performed out of NSBORO schools. When it resumed rehearsals, it was forced to shift locations. Fortunately, they found space in a neighboring borough.)
I was told in recent yeas that the membership had surged, but many members were still from Southborough.
Free attendance is possible thanks to Mass Cultural Council grants through the Southborough and Westborough Cultural Arts Councils.
