Default 5/19/2007 - Stars Over Clarkston II Concert & Star Party

STARS AND MUSIC FILLS THE AIR WITH THE CLARKSTON COMMUNITY BAND AND
WARREN ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY CONCERT AND STAR PARTY


The Clarkston Community Band (CCB) joined by members from the Greater
Windsor Concert Band, Warren Astronomical Society (WAS), and
Independence Township Parks and Recreation present "Stars Over Clarkston II".
This FREE event will take place on Saturday, May 19, 2007, at 7:00 pm
in Clintonwood Park, 6000 Clarkston Road, Clarkston, MI 48348.

The evening starts off with a dazzling musical concert featuring space music
from the movies including "Superman", "Lost in Space" and "Star Trek".
Treasures from the band's extensive music library will bring you the big
band sound with "Star Dust" and "Fly Me to the Moon." Recently the
Chandra X-ray Observatory has detected the deepest musical note ever
sounded in the universe - B flat, 57 octaves below middle C - emitted
by a black hole. Join the CCB tuba and low brass sections as they attempt
to repeat this historic event.

After the concert the WAS will have short astronomy presentations with a
Q&A period including how to use your telescope! WAS members will bring their
telescopes and Southern Michigan's largest portable 22" Dobsonian telescope
for you to view through. So pack up a picnic dinner, blankets/lawn chairs,
your telescope (optional) and shoot on over for the greatest musical star
party ever!

Now in its 11th season, the Clarkston Community Band is one of the areas
fastest growing and most respected wind bands. Its 52 volunteer musicians
dedicate their time and talents to performing free concerts for the greater
Clarkston area and presenting various educational and family entertaining
themed concerts. The band was selected to perform internationally in 2007
for the "Spectacle of Winds" with the Greater Windsor Concert Band. CCB
programs are made possible in part by Independence Township Parks and
Recreation and the Clarkston Community Schools.
