The Citadel Regimental Band and Pipes to present spring concert

The Citadel Regimental Band and Pipes will put on its annual spring concert at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 19, 2011, in McAlister Field House.

The spring concert will be under the direction of retired Navy Cmdr. Mike Alverson and Citadel Capt. Jim Dillahey. The cadets of the Regimental Band and Pipes will present selections of varied musical styles-from Broadway to the traditional sounds of Scotland.

The band, one of the most recognized cadet organizations at The Citadel, spent last August in Edinburgh, Scotland, as one of the featured performers at the 2010 Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, a nightly show featuring military musicians and performing groups from around the world.

The spring concert is free and open to the public.
