A traditional community band with all instruments and ages
welcoming listeners and players from all around southeastern Vermont.

The band plays next at the Westminster West Community Fair on Sept. 8, 2012 at 11:00. We'll play outside just after the little parade (or inside the church for rain). It's the first time we've played at this great little fair.

The Old Fire Station. The Grafton Band rehearses upstairs. The stairway is the leftmost door.Pre-season rehearsals are open to all--and a good way to blow out the cobwebs in your old high school instrument. Students are always welcome, too; a community band is for all ages. Rehearsals are upstairs at the Old Fire House (map), always on a Sunday, 2:00-4:00 with a refreshment break (see "Upcoming" at right). Directors are Bruce Corwin and Sue Lemei.

 

The Grafton Cornet Band welcomes all to our series of free summer concerts and parades (see the 2013 schedule). We play all sorts of traditional band music as we have for 146 years. Our concerts are informal, so bring chairs or a blanket and maybe a picnic. On rainy days, we play in the beautiful White Church in Grafton. More information…
