About

 

 

We are the official band of the City of Walnut Creek, California since 1987!  The City Council selected us to promote community identity and enrich civic pride. We are dedicated to excellence in performance, artistic development and patriotic service in the American tradition of the concert band.

 

Repertoire

We present a mix of formal concerts and music for various civic and patriotic functions. Additionally, we educate the public in a wide variety of concert music and establish an environment for musicians to maintain and improve their skills.

Our repertoire spans the entire rich spectrum of band music from Gershwin and Copland to Sinatra and Sousa. We perform at the Dean Lesher Center for the Arts, Civic Park, or Rossmoor – all in Walnut Creek.
