Denver Municipal Band will be entertaining Parker on August 5th 2007

Stop down to O'Brien Park on Sunday, Aug. 5 for the big jazz band sound
of the Denver Municipal Band. The DMB was founded in the late 1860s
by Alex Sutherland, bugler at the "Charge of The Light Brigade."
Surviving the ordeal, he settled in Denver where he was active in many of the
city's early musical activities.

The staple of DMB activity remains the "century plus" tradition of
summer concerts. Presented in accessible parks settings, these family
gatherings are entertained by the areas leading professional players,
including many principal players of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. In
addition to the full 40-piece concert band, the DMB family of ensembles
includes a 17-piece jazz band, jazz combo, brass band, plus woodwind and
brass quintets. These regularly present concerts in schools and community
centers.

The 17-piece Jazz Band will be appearing at a free show on Sunday, Aug.
5 as part of the Parker Cultural Commission's Concerts in the Park
series held at the O'Brien Park Gazebo from 1-3 p.m. Once again, free ice
cream will be provided by the Parker Sanitation and Water District.

Concerts in the Park are brought to you by the Parker Cultural
Commission and the SCFD. For more information visit www.parkerpresents.org or
