Over the years nearly every branch of the military has sent their top-ranked professional musicians to Boothbay Harbor’s Opera House to perform. While travel was restricted during the height of the Covid pandemic, Wednesday, Sept. 7 sees the return of military brass to the historic Midcoast stage.

Navy Band Northeast’s Tidewater Brass Quintet performances are appreciated by audiences of all ages. The quintet performs a wide range of musical styles encompassing traditional and modern brass literature, from jazz standards to patriotic marches. Quintet performances include public concerts and educational clinics, as well as military ceremonies and receptions.

The Navy band concert is free and open to all ages. Doors for seating open at 6:30 p.m., the concert is at 7. Refreshments will be available for sale.
