GSC Brass Ensemble to Perform at Charleston Town Center

Glenville State College

Glenville, WV – The Glenville State College Brass Ensemble will once again entertain shoppers and guests at the Charleston Town Center Mall on Saturday, December 21 with a selection of holiday music.

The ensemble is under the direction of GSC Associate Professor of Music Dr. Lloyd Bone and consists of 20 students. They will be performing from 11:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. in the area outside of the former Macy’s at the mall on what is expected to be one of the top three busiest shopping days of 2019.

“As always, this is a big honor. We have developed a large following of people who come out from all over the Charleston area and beyond to see us every year. This is one of my favorite performances of the year as I love Christmas music and we perform for very large crowds and get to see lots of GSC alumni. Also, it is always such a great day as the Charleston Town Center Mall employees, staff, and office personnel are so cordial, professional, and accommodating. In addition, the students always put on an excellent performance and represent GSC at a very high level,” said Bone.

For more information about the GSC Brass Ensemble, contact Bone at Lloyd.Bone@glenville.edu or (304) 462-6341.
