The
Tinley Park Community Band and Jazz Band is active year-round,
bringing the sound of live music to Tinley Park and surrounding
communities.
For
almost 40 years, the band has performed throughout Chicagoland and
Northwest Indiana,
including tours of Washington D.C, Toronto, and Tinley Park's sister city
of Büdingen, Germany.
Performances
are often 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, movie soundtracks, American classic band
literature, jazz standards, and more!
Members
gather from all over Chicago and the surrounding suburbs to share
their talents.
