The Bel Air Community Band has finally returned to our normal schedule! We currently have openings for bassoon. Most other sections are full and many have waiting lists. The Band rehearses on Monday evenings from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Patterson Mill High School. If you are interested in joining the BACB and are regularly available on Monday evenings for rehearsals and Sundays for most concerts, please complete the contact form. Please include your name, your email address, a phone number, the instrument(s) you play (except for percussion, you will be expected to supply your own instrument), and a brief synopsis of your playing experience.

The Bel Air Community Band would like to congratulate Scott Sharnetzka on his 25 years as music director of the BACB! Scott will be retiring later this year for some well earned rest and relaxation. He will be a tough act to follow!

The Bel Air Community Band is pleased to announce that we have auditioned for and been selected to perform at the Association of Concert Bands National Convention on Saturday, April 2, 2016 at the Soldiers and Sailors Hall in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 85 band members are planning to make the trip. Details about the convention can be found at www.acb2016.org.

Congratulations to Bel Air Community Band Music Director Scott
Sharnetzka for being inducted into the Maryland Music Educators
Association's Hall of Fame.  The BACB members know first hand that this honor is well deserved!
