"The Bloomfield Civic Band and its conductor, Dominick Ferrara III, have worked hard to carefully select a variety of period music that depicts the history of our town and nation as a whole in honor of our 200th anniversary," said Janice Litterio, Bloomfield Bicentennial Committee Chairperson.  "These wonderful compositions will compliment the included narration of our history in what promises to be a magnificent performance."  

The concert is part of the series of Bloomfield Bicentennial events that began with a heralded Opening Ceremony on March 23, marking 200 years to the day of the town's incorporation.  Future events include an old-fashioned picnic, concert series, historical presentations/ tours and more.  A list of event dates and details, information on sponsorship, merchandise, donation and volunteer opportunities are available at www.bloomfieldbicentennial.com or by request via email at info@bloomfieldbicentennial.com.
