If you play a wind or percussion instrument, or used to play an instrument in a concert band, … give us a go. We need you to build community music and fun in our area.

We welcome solid players of flute, clarinet, saxophone, horn, trumpet, trombone, euphonium/baritone, tuba, or percussion.

If you can read music but can’t remember where you put your instrument, maybe you’d like to join our percussion section (glockenspiel, bass drum, triangle, timpani, etc).

DM if you're keen! We kick off the year this Sunday!
