The Amherst Community Band is made up of high school students, college students, and adults, some of whom are in their 80's! Whether you play right now, or you haven’t played in years, you’ll feel right at home. Best of all we're audition free!
Our band is always under construction. Help us buy music, rent trucks and make music in our community with your generous online contributions!
We play concerts in Amherst, MA all summer long and have a holiday concert in December! All concerts are free and open to the public. After all, without an audience, it's only a rehearsal!
