Northwest Florida Community Band will present an evening of concert band classics on Tuesday, February 18, 2025 at 6:30pm in the Chipley High School Auditorium. Selections to be performed by the all-volunteer musicians in this ensemble will be from a variety of genres, including fanfares, marches, movie music, classical music, and a rousing version of “Cotton-Eyed Joe.”
Formed in early 2024, the Northwest Florida Community Band consists of musicians of all ages and walks of life that hail from across the Florida panhandle and south Alabama. Membership in the group is open to musicians who play a wind or percussion instrument and have a shared life-long love of performing music. The band is led by Music Director Richard L. Davenport, long-time local music educator and currently Assistant Professor of Music at the Baptist University of Florida.
Admission to the 6:30pm concert is free, although donations will accepted for the band’s music library fund. The public is invited to join the performance by these local artists.
