<h3>Rochester Community Concert Band Marks 10th Anniversary Season with “An American Tapestry”</h3>
Rochester, MI — In a celebration of artistry, community, and national heritage, the Rochester Community Concert Band (RCCB) proudly presents An American Tapestry on Tuesday, May 5 at 7:30 p.m. in Varner Recital Hall (371 Varner Drive) on the campus of Oakland University. Free parking is available in nearby lots, including 36, 26, and 24. Admission is free, and donations are warmly welcomed.
Under the direction of conductor Paul F. DeRubeis, the RCCB invites audiences to experience an evening of musical storytelling that honors both its 10th Anniversary Season and the spirit of America’s 250th Anniversary.&nbsp;
Gracefully weaving together tradition and innovation, this commemorative program showcases the depth and diversity of the American musical landscape. Featured bass clarinet soloist Colin Mile brings brilliance and lyricism to the Rondo movement of Concerto per Clarinetto by Michele Mangani. The evening also highlights the highly anticipated world premiere of Hold Fast by Andrew David Perkins, a work commissioned by the RCCB to mark this milestone season.
Audiences will also be treated to a rich array of repertoire, including The Old Boatman by Florence Price, An American Spectacular by Chris Sharp, and the rousing march The National Game by John Philip Sousa—a vibrant nod to America’s enduring traditions.
The RCCB is honored to welcome guest conductor Dr. Pamela Klena, Associate Professor of Music at Oakland University, who will lead a poignant performance of A Movement for Rosa by Mark Camphouse. Adding to the evening’s sense of community and collaboration, RCCB member Byron Coulter will conduct the beloved wind band classic Mannin Veen by Haydn Wood.
The program concludes with Glenn Miller in Concert, a dazzling tribute to the legendary Glenn Miller, celebrating the timeless elegance and energy of his music.
The Rochester Community Concert Band is a volunteer ensemble of passionate musicians dedicated to enriching the cultural fabric of the community through free, high-quality performances and engaging programming.
This activity is supported in part by an award from the Michigan Arts and Culture Council, the National Endowment for the Arts, and CME Group.
Join the RCCB for an unforgettable evening of music—where past and present converge in a stirring tribute to ten years of performance and 250 years of American heritage.

Join us Friday, May 22, 2026, at 8:00 p.m. at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church in Rochester for a performance you will not soon forget.
Under the baton of Maestro Zeljko Milicevic, this exceptional, captivating performance brings to life the extraordinary artistry and versatility of the orchestra’s finest musicians.
The orchestra is thrilled to feature the remarkable clarinetist Staff Sgt. Nick Thompson, a distinguished member of “The President’s Own” United States Marine Band. Renowned for his artistry and dedication, Nick has earned a Doctor of Musical Arts (2023) and a Master of Music (2018) from the University of Michigan, as well as a Bachelor of Music (2016) from George Mason University, all in Clarinet Performance. His performances with the Marine Band and Marine Chamber Orchestra—at the White House and throughout the nation during the band’s annual concert tour—have captivated audiences and demonstrated his exceptional talent and passion for music.
The program features works by Carl Maria von Weber, Michael Torke, and George Gershwin’s “Porgy and Bess Concert Suite No. 1” and “Walking the Dog.”
We are proud to announce that Matthew Averyt, a 21-year-old cellist and winner of the 2026 Rita May-Young Artist Competition, has been selected as this season’s featured SOLOIST. Matthew will perform Antonín Dvořák’s Concerto for Cello and Orchestra, No. 2 in B minor, Opus 104, third movement with the RSO. Matthew began his cello studies at age 11 and is now a senior at the University of Michigan, where he serves as co-principal cellist of the University Symphony Orchestra. He has earned top prizes in several competitions and has performed with orchestras across the United States. We eagerly anticipate Matthew’s concert appearance with the RSO.
