The
Tinley Park Community Band and Jazz Band are active year-round,
bringing the sound of live music to Tinley Park and surrounding
communities.
Established
in 1987, the band has performed throughout Chicagoland and Northwest
Indiana,
and on tours of Washington D.C, Toronto, and Tinley Park's sister city of
Büdingen, Germany.
Performances
are free, or have low admission fees, making live music affordable
and family friendly.
We
perform a wide repertoire of music, including:
marches, show tunes, popular songs, contemporary compositions, classic
band literature, and more!
Members
come from all over Chicago and the surrounding suburbs to share
their talents.

The Tinley Park Community Band wishes to honor our
friend and former member by helping fund a music education student
scholarship at her alma
mater, Millikin University in Decatur, Illinois.
Thank you!
The initial goal was reached,
allowing the scholarship to be given annually to a deserving music
education major. Future
donations increase the amount awarded.
To donate: Go to the donation link on the Millikin University website and enter the donation
amount and mark "yes" or "no" to it being
a recurring gift. On the next
page, in the comments box, type that the donation is for the "Jennifer Ketchmark-Liska
Music Education Award." Proceed through the rest of the online
form until you have completed the donation.
