On Sunday, March 22 at 3:00 pm, the Tri-County Symphonic Band, under the direction of Philip Sanborn, will continue its 2025–2026 concert season with a program embracing Broadway’s bountiful productions over the decades entitled “Celebrating American Musical Theater.” The program will highlight some of the most important composers within the genre, focusing on music that has transformed The Great White Way and formed the varied and expressive repertoire that we continue to enjoy today. Music from Jerome Kern, Richard Rodgers, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Harold Arlen and Stephen Schwartz will be performed in a variety of instrumental settings. Vocalist Heather Corrigan will sing a triptych of Jason Robert Brown selections that were specially arranged for her by Fairhaven pianist/arranger Matt Richard.
