t The Independent, Canadian Statesman Weekender, Bowmanville, Saturday, February 26,1994 11 A guide to fine dining . and entertainment. Strike Up the Concert Band Amateur Musician Group is Drawing Rave Reviews by Lorraine Manfredo The Clarington Concert Band has been drumming up plenty of faithful fans since it started up in the fall of '92. The 40 concert musicians continue continue to practise every week at the Orono Town Hall where they fine- tune their marches, show tunes, ari as and blués numbers. » They have brightened up cultural and political events in almost every community across Clarington. Now their summer calendar is filling up fast. Dave Climenhage, a trombone player and the man who founded the band, says he got the ball rolling be cause he sensed a real need. He's proud of how far the band has progressed. "We're the only town between Pickering and Cobourg with a concert concert band. The bands in Whitby and Oshawa are brass bands." Brass bands typically leave out woodwinds such as clarinets. Dave Climenhage still wants to attract more talent. He knows it's out there. He says the band could use more trumpets, clarinets, baritone saxes and french horns • On April 7th, the Clarington Concert Band is scheduled to host a Spring Concert at the Orono Town Hall. In May, they expect to appear at the Town Hall in Bowmanville.
