The Waterford Community Band
The Waterford Community Band is a group of volunteer musicians dedicated to learning and performing traditional concert band music. For over 40 years, Brass, woodwind, and percussion players from all walks of life and skill levels have come together for weekly rehearsals and numerous free performances in public venues in our community throughout the year.
Our mission is…
-
to provide an opportunity for community musicians to learn and perform concert band music that is both challenging for our members and interesting and enriching for our audiences;
-
to educate, encourage, and mentor young musicians to develop performance skills and an appreciation for concert band music;
-
to serve our community by providing free live performances in parks, community centers, and nursing homes.
In the spirit of John Philip Sousa and Edwin Franco Goldman, The Waterford Community Band serves to preserve and promote the tradition of quality, live-performance instrumental music in our community.
