The Music We Play

The Red Bluff Community Band repertoire consists of traditional and contemporary music which includes  marches, show tunes and  innovative works by many current composers. In addition to playing pieces from our own music  library,  our director will search for  and purchase new music - with approval from our Band members  and officers.

Music stands and chairs are available for rehearsals and performances, but you will need to bring your music clips or clothespins to keep your music from blowing and a hat to keep the sun out of your eyes.

Stands and Chairs

To meet our expenses for the purchase of music and supplies we sometimes receive payment for performances and often sell tickets for formal concerts, and may promote fund raisers for special needs.

Financial Support

The Red Bluff Community Band performs  for approximately  20 community events each year in Red Bluff including Fourth of July,  Memorial  Day and Veteran's Day, local city picnics and  fundraisers well as more formal concerts once or twice each year.
