Niles, Ohio: TubaChristmas will be celebrating its 11th anniversary in Trumbull County on Saturday, November 28 at the Eastwood Mall Performing Arts Center with performances at 12:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.!
Teresa Kirkland has founded and coordinated TubaChristmas in the area for the past 11 years and anticipates a great holiday celebration turn-out. Wes O’Conner will be conducting the sing-a-long Christmas concert with a special guest conductor. O'Connor is in his fifth year as director of bands at Austintown Fitch High School, 6 years as Assistant Director of Bands at Boardman High School, and as Assistant band director at Youngstown State University. As a musician, O'Connor is Principal Tubist with the W.D. Packard Concert Band and plays tuba with the Warren Brass Quintet. Wes is keyboardist with the popular local classic rock act, The HouseBand.
Created 36 years ago by Harvey Phillips, TubaChristmas concerts will be celebrated in over 200 cities across the country and internationally. TubaChristmas is an annual event honoring the late great tubist, William J. Bell (born on Christmas Day 1902). Every Christmas season tuba and euphonium players ranging from 8 years old to 89 years old from specific geographic locations gather to pay respect –through William J. Bell- to all teachers and artists who represent their heritage.
