Music for Life – Literally!

From fresh-faced twenty-somethings to groovy septuagenarians, Contra Costa Wind Symphony proves that great music isn’t just for the young — it’s for the young at heart. Community bands like ours are where accountants jam with artists, teachers toot alongside techies, and everyone comes together for one simple reason: the love of making music.

No matter your background or age, there’s always room in the group. Learn more about how to join the best wind symphony in the East Bay!
