24 ~ Friday, April 3, 1998 ~ North Shore News Van Band a top priority From page 18 The goal is to cultivate world-class music lovers rather than world-class musicians. “T want these kids to grow up and become patrons — of the theatre, the opera, the symphony,” says Macanlay. If thar sounds far-terchead, witness the range of music the youngsters perform: jazz, swing, Canadian compoyers and African hymn songs. Macaulay pushes the boundaries to keep it fresh, In a performance last Sunday at Centennial ‘Theatre the band’s young musicians, aged 10 to 19, tackled Puccint and Wagner for “A Night at the Opera.” May 9 the band will present its third annuai Big Band Cabaret at the Squamish Nation recreation centre, tradition- ally a sellout and the band’s biggest fundraiser of the year. “The band runs because of the parents,” says. Macaulay. “This is a family-driven organization which is what makes it great.” In fact, it is nor uncommon for fathers and sons, sisters and brothers to carry on the family tradition of playing in the band. The youth band is accepting enrolment for the °98/°99 season. For more information, call the band line at 970-0112. : Photo submitted THE Number 14 has ridden success all the way to Broadway.
