DESCRIPTION:The Keene State College Concert Band presents the second conce
 rt in this year’s Music of Social Justice Series\, “Our Response.” T
 his concert explores themes of immigrants\, immigration\, identity\, grief
 \, and devotion. We are proud to share the stage with the Keene High Schoo
 l Band for this performance.\nThe Keene State College Concert Band is cele
 brating nearly 50 years as a campus-community group\, composed of musician
 s from every walk of life\, ages 18 to 88. With a rich history of entertai
 ning and educating\, the ensemble is proud to promote the creation and per
 formance of new music\, particularly by musicians from under-represented p
 opulations. This concert will also feature the Keene High School Band\, un
 der the direction of KSC alumnus Mr. Joseph Conti (’18).\nAs a country o
 f immigrants\, the fabric of our nation is reflected in our music. In this
  performance\, we explore music by immigrants and children of immigrants\,
  music about immigrants and immigration\, and we reaffirm the echoing call
  to “give me your tired\, your poor\, your huddled masses yearning to br
 eathe free” inscribed on the Statue of Liberty. We also remember the fam
 ilies and lives torn asunder by gun violence\, and present our Bernstein-i
 nspired reply\, “to make music more intensely\, more beautifully\, more 
 devotedly than ever before.”
