New Maryland All State Band information is ready. Happy New Year!
Welcome!Columbia Bands, Inc. is a community-focused performance organization comprised of three different ensembles: the Columbia Concert Band, Flute Cocktail, and the Columbia Big Band.
All the CBI ensembles are taking precautionary measures to keep our players safe and healthy as we rehearse. We expect a rocky road ahead, as schools and other venues change their COVID rules in the coming weeks and months. But above all we wish everyone good health and good music, and we look forward to performing live for you later this year!
Please visit our Columbia Bands YouTube page for virtual performances by all three ensembles - Columbia Concert Band, Columbia Big Band, and Flute Cocktail.
Donating to Columbia Bands will help us to continue providing great performances, and will support the arts as a whole. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit entity, which means your donation is tax-deductible. Receipts are available upon request.
