The Maplewood Concert Band is a wind ensemble made up of woodwind, brass, and percussion instruments.
The ensemble performs free seasonal concerts in the winter, spring, and summer. Members also perform in smaller ensembles for town events, school enrichment programs, and more.
The Concert Band is a performance group for high school/college students, experienced adults, and out-of practice musicians who would like to have more performance opportunities or increase their music skills in a community environment.
The ensemble performs various styles of music including classical transcriptions, traditional "band" music, marches, and modern/contemporary pieces; however no style is off-limits.
Rehearsals are the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month from September through July. They run from 7:30-9:30pm and are held at DeHart Community Center in Maplewood, NJ. The ensemble is under the direction of Michael Jedwabnik.
