Rehearsals for the Maine Pops Concert Band's 2024 fall season began September 4 at Scarborough High School. The band will continue to rehearse at SHS every Wednesday evening from 7 to 9 p.m. during the fall season.
As always, there will be adjustments to the rehearsal schedule throughout the year as the local Scarborough schools conduct their own music and theater programs at the high school and middle school levels. The Maine Pops will take all steps necessary to coordinate alternate venues and inform the membership of rehearsal site changes in advance.
The Maine Pops Concert Band continues its recruitment of musicians in Maine and New Hampshire to join or rejoin the band. The band now has over 100 musicians registered. No auditions are required, but the band is now concentrating on filling specific instrumental voids within sections.
