Army band delights Ansonia concert-goers

The 102nd Army stage band performs Wednesday at Veterans' Memorial Park in Ansonia.


ANSONIA - My husband Ralph and I enjoyed the sights and sounds of the 102nd Army Band Wednesday night in a free summer concert sponsored by the Ansonia Cultural Commission.

The band is made up of Connecticut National Guard members.



 The band's brass ensemble took the stage ...



and some of them walked into the crowd

where they were well-received.

The American flag, Connecticut flag, and POW-MIA flag fly high above the musicians.  Here    the group's rock band is performing.

Here's another photo of the rockers.

The musicians inspired several audience members to get up and dance. 

Judging by the standing ovation the audience gave the musicians it's safe to say the concert was a huge success.

The Cultural Commission will host Starving Artists, a Seymour-based rock band, at 7 p.m. Aug.  7.
See you at the park!
