New Horizon Band
If you have ever wished:
  • You could revisit your high school band days
  • You could play for fun in a band at a relaxed pace
  • You could have fun making music with new friends

Now is the time to join the Music School’s New Horizons Band! Director: Maria Isaak

We hope you will join us for the new New Horizons Band at CCMS! Rehearsals are on Thursday evenings. There will be a winter concert at Concord High School on January 23, 2025 (January 30 snow date). 

Do you want to join the band this spring? The first spring rehearsal on January 30 is a FREE “open play” to try the R&B band from 5:45 – 6:30 pm or the concert band from 6:30-8:15 pm before registering.

The New Horizons Band will perform in two concerts for the spring semester, the first being a festival of all four New Hampshire New Horizons Bands on March 15 in Laconia, and the second as an outdoor concert on May 22 at Fletcher Murphy Park in Concord.

New Horizons R&B (Refreshers & Beginners)
Thursdays, 5:45 – 6:30 p.m.
Always wanted to join a band but your mom wouldn’t let you play a loud instrument? This weekly group class of mixed band instruments will start at the very beginning and help you gain enough comfort to play in an ensemble, including the New Horizons Band! R&B is the perfect band for someone who used to play an instrument, and just needs a “refresher” to play with confidence.
 
New Horizons Concert Band
Thursdays, 6:30 – 8:15 p.m.
A community band that welcomes adults of all ages who play woodwind, brass, or percussion instruments. No auditions, no requirements, just reasonable comfort on your instrument to get started.
 
Under the direction of Maria Isaak, New Horizons at CCMS is a supportive group for those who have always wanted to learn an instrument, those who haven’t played in years, and even players who have kept their music making current and desire to play in a concert band setting.
