THE VILLAGES NEW HORIZONS BAND
was founded in November 2005 and offers its members a wide variety
of music to perform for all listeners to enjoy. All members are Village residents
and come from varied backgrounds with one commonality, instrumental music
making in their retirement years.
The Villages New Horizons Band continues to support the philosophy of the
international program of The New Horizons International Music Association
which encourages and supports senior citizens involvement in instrumental
music programs. NHB membership includes the Association of Concert Bands
and the Bands Of The Villages. The NHB supports various area groups and organizations through their donations derived from proceeds from our concerts.

Attendance Policy for playing a Concert
As we continue grow
in quality of performance
and quantity of members
it is imperative to have full attendance at rehearsals.
We all know that there are very good reasons why people are not able to attend every rehearsal
and those reasons are respected; however, the following guidelines have been established to insure the highest level of performance that we
can possibly achieve.
