MONMOUTH COLLEGE SYMPHONIC CONCERT BAND
A love of music is all you need to be a part of the Monmouth College Symphonic Concert Band program! You’ll have opportunities to play in small groups, on-campus concerts, and campus and community events.
The symphonic concert band will perform a variety of music in one major concert each semester. As a concert musician, you’ll rehearse once a week on Monday evenings from 7:00-9:00 PM beginning January 17 in the band room of Dahl Chapel and Auditorium.
The symphonic concert band at Monmouth College will include interested students, staff and faculty, community band members, community members, high school alumni, current high school musicians, and teachers alike. Anyone is welcome!
The Monmouth College Music Department has a substantial inventory of woodwind, brass, and percussion instruments available for you to use.
