The American Band is a symphonic concert band comprised of over 50 adult
musicians from Rhode Island and nearby Connecticut and Massachusetts. Our
repetoire is both versatile and traditional with works ranging from classical
to popular, marches and operatic overtures to modern works for band. A
number of smaller ensembles are also formed within the band. The band has
a long and colorful history extending back to 1837, making the American
Band one of the oldest continuously active bands in the United States.
The American Band performance season extends from September through July
with both public and private performances, indoors and out. We invite you
to explore the world of the American Band.
