A concert band is a musical ensemble typically composed of woodwind, brass, and percussion instruments. Unlike orchestras, concert bands do not include string instruments. They perform a wide range of music, including classical, contemporary, and popular pieces, often in community settings or at school events. Concert bands are commonly found in schools and community organizations, providing opportunities for musicians to develop their skills and perform together. They may participate in competitions and festivals, showcasing their talent and fostering a sense of teamwork among members. Many concert bands also engage in outreach programs to promote music education in their communities.
