performance"

the interesting stories about the music. The band was so together
and into what they were playing. I felt like I was listening
to my fine town band a century ago."

"Newberry's
Victorian Cornet Band is both entertaining and educational.
Their authentic performances generate enthusiasm and preserve
history by providing beautiful brass band music and an interactive
presentation. The children and staff loved the performance and
enjoyed a great learning experience!"

"A
note of thanks for the concert Sunday night. I can't tell you
often enough how happy everyone was and what it did for the
church. Words are cheap but believe me your music and kindness
was a Godsend."
Betty Vasco, Union Presbyterian Church, Kirkwood, PA
"These
musicians can be counted on to give satisfaction with a big
S ... for superb. Each member is a splendid musician and each
fits nicely in whatever configuration a composition calls for.
They establish a warm presence to which our audiences respond
favorably. They've been a great hit in their Music at Penn Alps
concerts. We've engaged them before; we'll engage them again."
Fred Bolton, Music
at PennAlps
"The
concert offered everything a music lover could want, talented
musicians playing the old Victorian music ... much of it new
to me ... on fascinating authentic instruments. With surprisingly
complex arrangements, Newberry's Cornet Band provided an evening
of musical sophistication and just plain fun."
