The MCC Band program focuses on emphasizing instrumental techniques and the preparation of all styles of band literature for ensemble performance.

The MCC Band program includes both a Community Band that meets in the evenings, and is open to students and community members alike, and a Concert Band that meets during the day, that is geared towards music, and non music majors. Conductors of the MCC Band Program include Dr. Rob Hunter, Paul Brewer, and Brian Murphy.

Classes will meet at the MCC Performing Arts Center and will follow the health and safety regulations established by the college. Masking and distancing is encouraged while inside the building. Scholarships are available to students of all ages – you do not have to be a music major or a full-time student.
