We would like to personally welcome you to the Manatee Community Concert Band. Thank You for your interest! The Manatee Community Concert Band is committed to the community band concept, providing an opportunity for community musicians of all ages. The Band welcomes anyone who has a good deal of experience playing their chosen instrument, can read music well, and those that can commit to putting in the extra time and dedication necessary to attend all rehearsals, concerts, as well as being prepared with their individual parts for each rehearsal.
Band Membership Fees are $50 per season and the cost of the MCCB Black embroidered dress shirt for performances is $25.
Note: Members do not have to be a resident of Manatee County to be a member of the band.
Each rehearsal in very important to ensure the group's performance level is as best it can be. It is important you make every effort to be at each rehearsal. However, we do understand that things do come up on occasion and other commitments sometimes take precedence. Please be sure to let us know of your absence so the other band members can plan accordingly.
The Band Concert Season currently runs from November through April with four concerts at Neel Auditorium; a Summer Concert on August and four - six Satellite Concerts per season.
It is best to contact our Band Manager, Stacey Havill, via email (manateeconcertband.bmanager@gmail.com) or by text/phone (812-322-4633) to let her know you will be coming to rehearsal. Also, please fill out the Membership Information Form below so that we know a little bit more about you. We look forward to making music with you!
