The purpose of The Association of Concert Bands (ACB) is to encourage and foster adult concert, community, municipal, and civic bands, and to ensure that each musician who wishes to perform may have that opportunity; every community may have the opportunity to take civic pride in its band; and citizens of the world community may enjoy live performances of band music.
ACB members include bands, individuals, and corporations who are uniquely dedicated and equipped to serve the needs of adult instrumental musicians that perform in and/or lead adult concert bands. Our philosophy is manifested in such projects and goals as the ACB Band Builder’s Manual, sponsored clinics, Project Posy, and ACB music-commissioning projects.
