Is the Woodlands Concert Band a professional organization?
A. No. The musicians who play in the Woodlands Concert Band may be professionals in some cases, but none are paid for their participation. The band is open to professional and amateur musicians who enjoy playing in an excellent concert band that plays a varied repertoire. Q. Is the Woodlands Concert Band open to anyone who wants to participate? A. Yes; however in order for the band to perform at a consistently high level, the musicians who play in the band must also be able to play at a certain level. In general, participants can be of any level of skill, and should be enthusiastic and ready to learn…and practice. We strive to be as welcoming to someone returning to active playing after a hiatus as we are to professional and semiprofessional musicians. If you have concerns, contact us for more information about the level of musicianship required–or just attend one of our rehearsals, every Thursday at 7pm at Christ Church United Methodist, 6363 Research Forest Drive, in The Woodlands
