Currently this book is only available for purchase at Amazon.com or at Outskirts Press.com I have received a bunch of photographs of the Silverstein Brass holiday brass band from Ken Norman and Cathy Strege. I have begun posting them and I will continue to do so as time permits. For those of you who don't know or remember, Silverstein Brass first performed in 1973 when it entertained Christmas shoppers on Monument Square in downtown Racine. It was composed mainly of musicians from Racine's various drum and bugle corps, especially from the Kilties. Ken Norman was their musical director. For about thirty years Silverstein Brass "toured" Racine each Saturday before Christmas entertaining holiday shoppers at various locations throughout Racine. You can relive this holiday tradition at Silverstein Brass No photos, artwork, written information or anything else which appears on any page of this website may be used, copied or transferred in whole or in part in any manner or form which includes the copying and re-posting of anything from this website to any other website without prior expressed written permission from the webmaster@racinekiltiealumni.org Creative rights are protected by Federal Law. |
