Festival Band

Information about the next Festival Band is coming soon. This is an ensemble made of individuals from community bands throughout the region. No audition is necessary; players must only complete a registration form and pay a small fee. The goal of the Festival Band is to include as many musicians as possible representing numerous community organizations – and to have a great time making music together!
