The Community Band was founded in 1977 as part of the Ohlone College Department of Music. Over the years, the Community Band grew under the baton of past conductors Phil Zahorsky, Rich Levin and Steve Barnhill. Beginning in Fall 2007 the Band is under the direction of Tony Clements. The Band has a wonderful blend of youth and experience and is an outstanding example of the benefits of a music education. The band has a wide variety of literature to challenge both the audience and the ensemble itself.

The Community Band is open to all musicians with conductor approval. To participate, register for the Community Band at Ohlone College.
