If your children enjoy history and music and enjoy Patriot's Day activities in Concord every spring, perhaps they could be part of the excitement. Our group serves as the Honor Guard at the North Bridge during the Concord Patriot’s Day Parade and is now accepting applications for new members ages 8 to 18.
New members may choose to play the fife, the snare drum or the bass drum. No previous musical experience is necessary. The instructing staff is comprised of experienced teachers and musicians who have a love of music and want to pass that on to the next generation. We provide free music instruction during rehearsals; our staff volunteers their time to ensure that the fife & drum legacy continues in Massachusetts.
The program runs year around and we accept new recruits of all levels from beginner to experienced musicians, even if they don’t play fife or drum yet. Our main performance season is the summer months, which is ideal for a musician in a school band to have a great summer music experience doing something new and exciting!
