WestwoodWinds to resume live concerts

Invites musicians to attend Open House Rehearsal June 13, 2022

WestwoodWinds Community Band invites all area musicians to participate in its 11th concert season. After a two-year hiatus, the band is eager to welcome new members who share its enthusiasm for playing music together in a fun, supportive environment and performing for others.

The band is directed by James Giurleo, former Westwood Public Schools K-12 Director of Performing Arts. Its volunteer membership includes amateur and professional musicians ranging in age between 14 and 80+ who perform FREE concerts to the public. The band’s repertoire changes each year and includes pop, TV/movie themes jazz, Broadway and semi-classical styles that reflect our American culture and trends. Rehearsals are scheduled on six Mondays from 6:30 – 8:30 in the Westwood High School band room starting June 13, 2022.

If you are interested in joining, contact the director or attend the “Open House” rehearsal where any interested musician can just show up and bring their horn or sticks and sit in with no obligation to join. Refreshments will be served. Musicians are accepted with no audition however, all members should possess sufficient skills to perform music comparable to an average high school band.
