“Our Voices Carry” at Autumn Fanfare

3 Oct

Our very own Webster Marching Band will host their 37th annual Autumn Fanfare field show and competition on Saturday October 7 at Webster Schroeder High School, 875 Ridge Rd.

Autumn Fanfare is always a spectacular evening of storytelling through music, marching, and even a little bit of acting. There are always huge set pieces involved to move the music-story forward. This is an awesome opportunity to see what our hometown marching bad has been up to, and be impressed by the incredible amount of hard work these kids put in every year to create a show that will blow you away.

This year’s production is called “Our Voices Carry.” The band describes the show this way:

You are strong. You are worthy. You are enough. You are not alone. Our show tells a story of survival, healing, and the power of affirmations.

Based on a Rochester mural by Sarah Rutherford called “Stories of Strength,” each movement embodies a different window and message within the mural. Together we use our physical and musical voices to carry a message of hope and positivity. Follow along as we interpret each window’s story and use the field to bring it all to life!

Gates open at 5 p.m. and the show starts at 6 p.m. Tickets are $10, available at Herman’s Farm Market (741 Five Mile Line Rd.) and the Webster Recreation Center (1350 Chiyoda Dr.). They can also be purchased for $12 at the gate.

    thanks, nice article about these hardworking and gifted students.  I was on Board of Education when we didn’t have a marching band.  We voted it in, the best vote I ever took part .
