You may not notice any orange construction barrels, but you probably have seen that we have a slightly different “look.” The Falcone Festival website is undergoing a complete upgrade. The site is now responsive and you should still be able to find everything you are looking for under the menu items, which have not been changed. We are working to make sure everything is still operating properly, with some design changes, and ultimately some upgraded functionality coming, but we may be unavailable off and on until roughly mid-January. We apologize for any inconvenience. If you have an urgent question, feel free to email Jane Goodrich or send a question to the Leonard Falcone International Euphonium & Tuba Festival on Facebook.
