The Maine Pops Concert Band’s 2025 spring season concluded with its April 27 concert at Scarborough High School’s Winslow Homer Center for the Arts. The band began summer rehearsal sessions for its busy 2025 summer season on April 30, reviewing fall and spring literature for potential use during the summer months.
The band normally rehearses at Scarborough High School every Wednesday evening from 7 to 9 p.m. until the end of the school year. As always, there will be adjustments to the rehearsal schedule 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.
