Join us to meet our band members and learn more about Gwinnett’s premier all-volunteer community band. We play concerts in a variety of venues, and our performances feature a range of music from foot-stomping marches and musical scores to sing-along Big Band tunes and hymns.
The Gwinnett Community Band is actively recruiting players of all instruments: woodwinds, brass and percussion. We especially need clarinet, French horn and bassoon players. Dust off that music case; tune up your horn; have a cookie at the open house and stay over to play a few tunes.
We hope you will join us for our 2010 Fall Open House and become a member of the Gwinnett Community Band!
