Our upcoming patriotic concerts on June 29 (Lake Junaluska Stuart Auditorium Tent) and July 6 (Calvary Road Baptist Church, Maggie Valley) will be our annual salute to Old Glory.

From Yankee Doodle to George Gershwin, expect a true flag-waver performance featuring our endless parade of firecracker musicians dazzling you all the way down to the tips of your star-spangled toes!
Both concerts begin at 4:00 pm.

Summertime in the Smoky Mountains is always a very special time for those of us lucky enough to live here. This is where the mountains meet the sky.

Like a determined hiker to reach the summit, our “Summer Fun” and “More Summer Fun” concert program selections will touch on the beauty that surrounds us, overcoming challenges or being as free as the mountain air!

The Haywood Community Band pays tribute to American composers who have advanced the wind band tradition and continues to shape the country’s musical identity. These composers have greatly influenced the wind symphony repertoire along with the continuing evolution of the modern wind symphony. The musicians in tonight’s concert are grateful for the opportunities these individuals have made possible and we hope you enjoy their compositions created specifically for the American wind symphony.
