COMMUNITY CONCERT BAND INC

Established in 1972 as a summer program of the Callanwolde Fine Arts Center, we are an all adult symphonic wind band that provides quality community concert performances throughout the year in the metro Atlanta, GA area.

The band continues in its fifty-second year and continues to perform challenging pieces for its members and entertaining music for its audiences. Over five decades the concert band has matured into one of the finest ensembles of its type in the southeast.

Founded under the baton of Charles Bradley, famed director of the outstanding East Atlanta Elementary Band, the band continued with George Webster as director and temporarily paused operations in the summer of 1973. Enjoying consistent leadership, the band has enjoyed five Music Directors in nearly five decades of presenting music to the community.

We play (free of audience charge) for national holiday events (Fourth of July, Veteran's Day etc...) and quarterly concert performances in a variety of venues (churches, schoolds, and outdoor ampitheaters etc...) in order to reach many members of the community and provide the joy of music for all. In addition, we provide tutelage and have started an instrument loan program for young people to help institute the love and practice of musical arts to those unable to afford instruments.
