Go back in time t5thregimentalbando the Music of the Civil War era with the 5th Michigan Regimental Band. The band was once known as the 5th Michigan Infantry Band. For 108 years from 1865-1973, it was just a memory. Then as a State of Michigan Bicentennial project it was recreated in the form of the 5th Michigan Regiment Band.
In keeping with the authenticity of the Civial War "field" regimental bands, the present band consists of musicians, color guard, and support personnel. The band's repertoire of the 1860's includes marches, polkas, schottisches, waltzes, and songs arranged for the group by Lt. Col. Guy Smith. This event will take place Saturday, November 14th at 2:00 p.m. in the Judith A. Stillion Conference Room.
