The Williamsport Community Band is excited to present the Williamsport Community Jazz Band. Directed by Bryan Detrow, they are bringing a classic, big band style swing to the stage throughout the region. Featuring members of the Community Band alongside other local talents, the Jazz Band will be playing standards from the likes of Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Buddy Rich, and Sammy Nestico as well as modern jazz, funk, and soul selections.
The Jazz Band has performed locally throughout the Williamsport and regional area including the Alsatia Mummers Day Parade, local Williamsport community and church events, small business promotional days, and at dinners and small events for other organizations. As a non-profit organization with volunteer musicians, ask how we can support your church or non-profit to bring music to your community.
