The Holland College Community Concert Band is comprised of members from all walks of life – from university and college students to music graduates, community members, and many long-time musicians.
The band contributes to the cultural landscape of PEI by providing opportunities for musicians to make music together on a weekly basis and by presenting public concerts throughout the year.
The band welcomes young people and provides a musically rich playing experience which emphasizes fine-tuning ensemble skills and playing expressively together.
The Holland College Community Band serves an important role in the concert band community on P.E.I., positioned at a level that appeals to graduating high school students or anyone who is returning to music performance. The band generally performs B300-level to B400-level pieces in several genres and styles.
The concert and jazz bands practice on Tuesday evenings at the Florence Simmons Performance Hall on Holland College’s Prince of Wales Campus. Prospective members are welcome to attend a rehearsal and meet the band.
