Long Beach Community Band

Established in 1947, the Long Beach Community Band brings local musicians of all skill levels together to enrich the greater Long Beach community, providing challenging performance opportunities for adult musicians who otherwise would not have a large ensemble opportunity, while also making music accessible to diverse audiences in free performances at civic events, patriotic and holiday celebrations, and concerts in formal venues and Long Beach parks.

We can't play together live, so here it is: The Long Beach Community Band brings you our "Safer at Home" rendition of this great tune. We had everyone record their parts using a scratch track with click to keep time, with whatever recording devices they had. Most just used their phones.

The "Safer at Home" Ensemble plays the main theme to The Mandalorian

The Long Beach Community Band brings you another "Safer at Home" recording, this time for all the Star Wars geeks (Yes we are!). As before, we had everyone record their parts with whatever recording devices they had. Most just used their phones. Then we nerds got to play with our toys.
