The Pomona Concert Band invites local high school band directors to recommend qualified students for membership in the band.  Participation exposes these students to an enormous body of band literature under skilled direction.  This experience enhances their skills in every area of music performance.  The band benefits as well from the added numbers, the enthusiasm, and energy the students bring to us.  We offer a big "Thank You!" to the Pomona schools for their support.
