2023 Holiday Concert
Join us for an evening of holiday favorites and a few fun new pieces. We are back in the Ballston Spa High School Auditorium. Admission is free.
2023 Beekman Street Art Festival!
Join us under the tent at the corner of Beekman and Ash for the annual Beekman Street Art Festival. We are thrilled to be organizing the music tent again this year, with a grant from Saratoga Arts, bringing live music to the festival.
Performing this year:
- Saratoga Springs Fiddle Club (11-11:45)
- Ballston Spa Community Band (12-1:45)
- Swing Docs (2-3:15)
- Gadget (3:30-4:45)
Saratoga Arts made this program possible through the Community Arts Regrant Program, funded by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
Our 17th Season!
We are gearing up for our 17th season. Rehearsals have started and we have a number of concerts and events planned already. There is always room for more — especially clarinetists this year. We rehearse Wednesday evenings from 7 to 9pm. Please reach out if you are interested, so we can get all the information we need.
Coronavirus Postponements
Due to the recent announcements regarding the Corona Virus, The BSCBand Board has decided that we should postpone rehearsals until April. We feel that it is in the best interest of all of our members; the health and safety of our members and their families being utmost of importance.
We are also at this time cancelling the performance of the Rite Of Spring. The Ballston Spa HS Musical has been rescheduled for that weekend, and therefore we would not have access to the auditorium, the equipment and several of our members are involved in that performance. Thank you for all of the work you have put into this piece.
After April 1 we will take a week to week approach, based on information from the school district and the government recommendations. The board will remain in contact during our hiatus, and if you have any concerns or questions please contact us via the website or through Tracy’s e-mail tracy.deragon@gmail.com
Please take care and be safe- we are looking forward to seeing you all as soon as we can!
Sincerely,
Tracy, Kelly, Vern, Beth M, Beth C, Peter, and Jake
