The band has agreed to produce two concerts each year at the forest View Education
Center Theatre as a part of the rapidly growing and varied schedule of concerts at the
Center.

Prairie is the only brass band invited to join the lineup of world-acclaimed artists and
performers presenting programs throughout the year. No stranger to the venue, the band
has presented concerts there three previous times featuring World’s Champion Whistler
David Morris from Dobcross, UK.

The band kicks off its new series with a concert on March 27, 2011 featuring famed jazz
trumpet artist Bobby Lewis ( www.bobbylewis.com) Bobby will be performing with the
band on trumpet, flugel horn, cornet, and even singing a chorus or two!

Says band president Clark Niermeyer,”We are thrilled with the opportunity to present
entertaining and accessible brass band music to the greater Chicago suburban area for
many years to come.”
