The
Stratford Community Concert Band was founded in 1961, providing area
musicians
of all ages and skill levels with a place to rehearse and perform
together.
Current members range in age from middle-schoolers to middle-agers, to
seniors, and represent a wide variety of professions. The common
bond has always been a love of music.
There
are no auditions for membership and there are no fees for music or
rehearsals.
The only requirements for continuing membership are average performing
ability on a standard band instrument and reasonable regularity in
attending
rehearsals.
To
inquire about membership, please contact us at info@stratfordcommunityband.org.
