The Columbus City Band performs at a concert last year. The band is encouraging former members and current members to join weekly rehearsals.
The Columbus City Band has begun its 2024-2025 season and is looking for former and current band members to join in making music.
Columbus City Band is an all-volunteer organization made up of musicians who may have played in high school, college, or are still playing now.
Rehearsals are on Monday evenings from 7-9 p.m. in the band room at Central Middle School, located at 725 Seventh St., Columbus. The band members enter the building from the entrance on Chestnut Street.
The Columbus City Band performs four indoor concerts throughout their season as well as several outdoor venues.
To see who Columbus City Band members are, visit the website www.columbuscityband.org, or Columbus City Band on Facebook. There you will find recordings of past concerts, a rehearsal schedule, a concert schedule as well as the ever-popular “musician jokes” section.
In a news release, the band says “there are no try-outs, just bring your instrument and sit in with us and see if works. So dust off that instrument and join us on Mondays beginning on Sept. 9 at 7 p.m.”
