Canfield Community Concert Band

Please remember that rehearsal tonight (July 10) is cancelled. We will practice as scheduled next Tuesday (July 17), but it has been moved to the Middle School band room. We will be rehearsing some new music for the upcoming concerts at Louisville and St. Michael's church. Please be there.

In other scheduling news, please note the addition of the August 7 concert at Shepherd of the Valley's West Blvd./Boardman location and the September 2 concert at the Canfield Fairgrounds historical village.

Did you miss our first outdoor concert of the season? Disappointed that rain spoiled the second half? Not to worry, there are many more opportunities to take in a summer concert. Make sure you follow our Calendar of Events to see the latest updates on our performance schedule. We have added some new events later in the summer, including our annual appearance at the Canfield Fair.

As you prepare for your Fourth of July celebrations, be sure to include some time for one (or all) of our concerts this week. We'll be performing at Buhl Park in Hermitage this evening, July 1, at 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 3 we'll be in Austintown Township Park at 7 p.m. And on July 4, we'll take part in the festivities at Firestone Park in Columbiana. Our performance there will begin at 5:30 p.m. This week's concerts will feature music of American composers and patriotic favorites.
