BANDS OF THE VILLAGES


Welcome to the website of the Bands of the Villages (BOTV). The BOTV is an

umbrella organization which includes a variety of concert bands, musical groups,

and instrumental ensembles.

 

    • All of the directors and participating musicians are volunteers and reside in

    the Villages.

    • The musicians, both amateur and professional, enjoy playing music together,

    rehearsing routinely, and performing throughout the year in a variety of

    locations.

    • Potential members are welcomed to contact the directors of the different

    bands, groups, or ensembles for possible placement.

    • The major purpose listed in the BOTV bylaws is to provide cultural benefits

    and musical entertainment for the community through concerts, festivals,

    parades, and other events.

    • The business of the organization is managed by a Board comprising the

    music directors and representatives from each of the approved concert

    bands, groups, or ensembles.

 

The BOTV is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit corporation with a significant portion of performance proceeds given to charitable programs including those involved

with music education, senior health, and military families.

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.
