What types of music does the Albany Marine Band perform?
The 50 Marines in the Albany Marine Band combine to create many different ensembles capable of performing a wide variety of music. Primarily a ceremonial band, we play for many different events for civilian and government organizations including ceremonies, parades, and patriotic concerts. Other genres include classical, standard and contemporary jazz, Latin, rock, and country. The type of ensemble provided for any performance is based on the band’s operational tempo, the appropriateness of the event, and the desires of the sponsor.
