The band and chorus are scheduled to perform at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 6 in the Dyer County High School gymnasium.

The 65-member ensemble is the oldest and largest of the Field Band's four performing components. It was founded in 1946.

The Soldiers' Chorus is slightly younger, having been founded in 1957. It currently features 29 soldiers who sing everything from opera to musical theater to patriotic tunes.
