Music has always been a strong part of worship at Trinity Presbyterian Church. On Nov. 15, that commitment continues as Trinity launches its 26th season of its Community Concert Series with the famed Atlantic Brass Band, a British-style volunteer brass band made up of area professional musicians, professors, music educators, students, and community members.
ABB is the ensemble-in-residence at Rowan University in Glassboro and was originally formed as the Wheaton Brass Band in the early 1980s. As the 2011 and 2012 North American Brass Banding Champions, ABB is in great demand for a wide variety of area performances that include traditional British repertoire, sing alongs and band favorites.
The other two concerts in the series include “WE Are Music”, the combined efforts of the Cherry Hill school district’s impressive Cherry Hill East and West high schools vocal ensembles to perform On Tuesday, Feb. 2, 2016 and the renowned Settlement Music School’s Gleeksman-Kohn Children’s Choir on Sunday, April 10, 2016. The director of Settlement’s Gleeksman-Kohn Children’s Choir is Rae Ann Anderson, former music director at Trinity and the person who originally started the concert series in 1989. All concerts are free and open to the public.
