This Event has Passed
SJWS and the entire South Bay community were saddened by the loss of our founding conductor, Darrell Johnston, who passed away in May 2021 at the age of 90.
Maestro Johnston founded SJWS in 1957 and remained at the podium for 44 years before handing the baton to Dr. Harris in 2002. Under Darrell's leadership, SJWS became one of the premier community bands in the country, providing an opportunity for non-professional, adult musicians to continue to perform at a high level.
This concert pays tribute to Maestro Johnston by showcasing some of his favorite works. In addition to his conducting skills, Darrell was also a formidable clarinetist. To celebrate that aspect of the Maestro's musical personality, we've invited Jon Manasse, one of our nation's premier clarinet soloists, to join us. Jon will perform Carl Maria von Weber's Clarinet Concerto No. 1 in F minor.
