GLENVILLE, W.Va. – The Glenville State College (GSC) Brass Ensemble will entertain shoppers and guests with a selection of holiday music at Meadowbrook Mall on Saturday, December 11.

The ensemble is under the direction of GSC Associate Professor of Music Dr. Lloyd Bone and consists of approximately 20 students. They will be performing from 2:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. in Center Court of the mall.

“This is a big honor for the Ensemble and the students always put on an excellent performance and represent Glenville State at a very high level. We have a lot of alumni and supporters who enjoy coming out from around the area to hear the band as well,” said Bone. “I also love Christmas music, so these holiday performances are a favorite of mine.”

Bone says that he appreciates the employees and office personnel at Meadowbrook Mall who have helped coordinate the performance.
