Holiday concert slated for Sunday may be KO'd by snow

Reporter Jackie Majerus just sent this along:

A holiday concert by the Bristol Brass and Wind Ensemble planned for Sunday afternoon will likely be postponed because of the storm, said Dave Carpenter, conductor.
Carpenter said Friday that the concert, scheduled for 2 p.m. Sunday at the Prospect United Methodist Church on Summer Street, will probably not happen as planned.
A nor’easter is expected to bring snow, sleet, rain and freezing rain throughout the day Sunday, according to the National Weather Service.
If the weather is as yucky as forecasted, Carpenter said, the concert won’t be held.
However, if luck prevails and the storm misses the area, the show will go on, Carpenter said.
Common sense will dictate whether the show will go on as planned, he said.
“We will definitely reschedule,” said Carpenter. “We’ll do a winter concert. We’ll make it work.”
The Bristol Brass and Wind Ensemble is an all-volunteer community band that provides free concerts periodically throughout the year.
The Sunday concert is to be the group’s Christmas show. If it is rescheduled, some of the selections will remain on the program, but others won’t since a new date won’t take place until after the holiday.
