About the Band
Our Mission Statement
The mission of the Belle Valley Community Band is to bring together area musicians to rehearse and perform quality band repertoire for the enjoyment of area audiences. The band performs to entertain the community and for the pure love of muisc.

Concerts
The band presents three formal concerts in December, March and April or May of each year, with ocassional concerts added. Concerts are presented on Sunday afternoons. We usually perform for the Venture High School's graduation every June, as well.

Rehearsals
The band rehearses on Tuesday nights from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m., usually running from the third week of September through the Christmas concert in December, and from the second week of January through the Spring concert. Rehearsals are held in the Almont High School band room, Almont, MI, but please refer to the band's Members Only Page for up-to-date locations and times.

Repertoire
A wide variety of repertoire is performed, from orchestral transcriptions and standard band classics to marches and showtunes. Music ranges from intermediate to advanced in level.

Membership
Membership is on a volunteer-basis and is open to qualified players of intermediate through advanced levels of playing, high school through adult, on all wind and percussion instruments. Many of the band members are professional performers and teachers. We also have several families performing in the band. Wind players must provide their own instruments, while percussion instruments are provided for rehearsals and concerts.
