The American Legion Community Band, located in Front Royal, Va, will begin its 25th season on September 7, 2010. With approximately 40 members, the band represents nearly all sections of a concert band. The conductors and band members are all volunteer musicians from the local area. Located in the northwestern corner of Virginia, 70 miles west of Washington, D.C., Front Royal is one of many towns in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. Front Royal has long attracted tourists and seasonal residents, who have come to the area because of the climate, accessibility to major cities, and scenic beauty. Major tourist attractions include Shenandoah National Park, Skyline Drive, Shenandoah River and Skyline Caverns.

The band performs at a variety of concerts and community festivals throughout the year. All performances are free and open to the public. Our repertoire is both versatile and traditional with works ranging from classical to popular, marches and operatic overtures to modern works for band. Thanks to the generous support of the Giles B. Cook Post #53 of the American Legion, the band purchases new music arrangements each year.

The conductors are Ed Richards and Ronald Dye. All rehearsals are held on Tuesdays from 7:30 - 9:00 pm in the Fulton Fine Arts Complex bandroom at Randolph-Macon Academy in Front Royal, Va. Anyone who plays an instrument and would like to join is welcome to attend. The American Legion Community Band's performance season extends from September through July each year with public performances both indoors and out.
