Marine Band Performs in Cedar Rapids Concerts
The 1969 United States Marine Band played two Cedar Rapids shows at Memorial Coliseum sponsored by the Metropolitan Kiwanis club. About 1,800 attended the evening program directed by Lt. Col. Albert Schoepper, with notable soloists James Erdman and Fredric Erdman. The band delivered Rossini’s Musicales and von Suppe to lively reception, though a Jolson encore drew criticism for taste.
