Leading social change by revealing big stories hidden in the human heart.

Two and a half hours from New York City lie the Catskill Mountains and rural Sullivan County. For the last seventy-five years, in the summer, for one hour on Wednesday nights, rain or shine, the Callicoon Center Band has been playing. The audience is mostly locals, because Wednesday night is not really convenient for the city people whose second homes dot the hills and lakes surrounding Callicoon Center. Also the music may not be quite to their taste. Polkas, waltzes, and the hits of fifty years ago come blaring and bouncing out of the thirty member band.

Local music teachers, merchants, social workers, teens and retirees commit to ten weeks of rehearsal in the spring and ten performances over the summer. In this short documentary, Academy Award nominated® director Alice Elliott celebrates music and community as the band rides the waves of change.
