About the Program
The Pioneer Valley New Horizons Band provides a fun and nurturing social environment in which retired and/or senior adults with little-to-no formal music education can learn a concert band instrument and play ensemble music with their peers. In addition to full band rehearsals, participants are given sectional group instruction by professional musicians from NCMC.
