The Saddle River Valley Concert Band has been in existence since 1972. Rehearsals are every Wednesday evening from 8:00-10:00 at the Cavallini Middle School on West Saddle River RD in Upper Saddle River, NJ (just north of Lake Street).

We have an extensive music library of over 500 arrangements which include marches, show tunes, classical pieces and just about every concert band staple piece you can think of.

We have about 15-20 concerts per year which include playing at town or school concert series, graduations, tree-lightings or just about any place where people will listen to us. The band consists of about 40 musicians. A few are music teachers and professional musicians but most of us are 9-5ers that do something else for our day job. There are no try outs so just come in, introduce yourself to our conductor Harley Streiff and grab a library folder to read off. If you're interested in becoming a member we'll make a folder for you in the weeks to follow.

Hope this gives you enough info about the band and hopefully we'll see you there in the weeks to come

As concorde is no longer flying and you're probably not paying expenses, I don't think I can join you. A few years ago I was in NJ about half my time.

I'm interested. I live in central Jersey.
Is there an age limit? I'm a junior in high school, and I plan to take horn as a musical career in the future. Would it be helpful for me to perform in this band? I'm in the school Wind Ensemble.

I think this is more for graduated students/working adults, since in the post it said most of them are musicians, music teachers, or people who just usually work 9-5. :[
