All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
Young musicians have a scheduled role in the Edwardsville Municipal Band’s holiday concert: they will accompany the ensemble for one or two songs. The announcement describes a part in the program, not an open invitation to join the band.
Edwardsville traces the Municipal Band’s community tradition to the 1880s. The band’s public calendar also includes free, weather-permitting summer performances each week at the Cleaon Etzkorn Bandstand in City Park, along with appearances in local parades.
The holiday concert at Wildey Theatre is another recurring part of that calendar. The band directory describes the ensemble as a 60-piece concert band, offering a sense of the group young musicians will join for the Dec. 5 performance.

The event announcement says young musicians will accompany the band for a holiday song or two. It does not identify the players or selections, or explain a process for taking part, so families should treat this as a feature of the scheduled concert rather than a sign-up opportunity.
