Helping fellow musicians
WELLSBURG — Several local rock bands are helping two choirs known for a different style of music to perform at an event in Washington, D.C. Eight groups are slated to compete in a Battle of the Bands to be held March 27 at the Brooke High School Auditorium, with proceeds going to defray travel and lodging expenses for the Brooke High School Madrigal and Renaissance choirs. The two groups have been invited to perform in the National Memorial Day Choral Festival planned May 28-31 at the John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts. Known for appearing in costumes inspired by the Medieval period and performing classical and folk music a capella, the groups were invited to appear in the national event at the recommendation of Gov. Joe Manchin. Admission for the Battle of the Bands is $5 per person. Doors will open at 5 p.m., with the event set to begin at 6 p.m.
