He quickly became known to our students the adopted grandfather of the band. Over the past 16 or so years, Dan traveled to Hawaii with us on three separate occasions, the 65th, 70th and 75th Pearl Harbor Anniversaries. Each time he represented the USS Pennsylvania and sounded Taps at Pearl Harbor and the Waikiki Holiday Parade.<\/p>\n<p class=\" \">In recognition of Dan\u2019s service to his country, fellow veterans and community, the LHSGB has chosen to honor him at our Spring Concert. In memory of Dan, we will be performing the Lost Chord. We are inviting any trumpeters, cornetists or buglers who have known Dan to join us on the final section of the Lost Chord. If you are interested, please e-mail Keving Long at klong@basdschools.org for the portion of the Lost Chord that they are asking you to play. Memorization will be key. There will be no music stands available and direct overhead lighting will be limited. Just prior to the last section, you will walk onto the floor and join with the soloist and 39 other trumpeters from the LHSGB.<\/p>\n<p class=\" \">Rehearsal &#8211; Thursday March 22nd &#8211; 7:00pm Liberty High School Memorial Gymnasium<\/p>\n<p class=\" \">Performances &#8211; Friday March 23 &#8211; 8:00pm &#8211; we will perform about 8:40pm<\/p>\n<p class=\" \">Saturday March 24 &#8211; 8:00pm &#8211; we will perform about 8:40pm<\/p>\n<p class=\" \">Attire &#8211; Band Uniform or White Shirt and Dress Pants.
