South Shore Brass Band at Meadowbrook

Music is found everywhere in nature, from the hum of cicadas to the signature songs of birds. Tune into some of these natural sounds through a guided hike at Meadowbrook Nature Preserve, led by Certified Interpretive Guide Mari Patis. Learn how sound plays a role in the ecosystem, as well as how modern day music has been inspired by nature.

This hike will lead right to the Meadowbrook Amphitheater, where the South Shore Brass Band will perform right in the heart of the preserve.

The South Shore Brass Band, conducted by Vince Arizzi, is a professional musical organization based in northwest Indiana along the south shore of Lake Michigan and composed of 28 performing musicians including cornets, flugel horn, tenor and baritone horns, euphoniums, trombones, tubas, and percussion dedicated to the public performance of all genres of music.
