The holiday season arriving in the greater Chelmsford region means that the Chelmsford Community Band is getting out some of their favorite sheet music to usher in the holiday cheer. The Jazz Ensemble will start the holidays off at 7pm on Saturday, December 5th, at the Chelmsford Center for the Arts. Under the direction of Art Bakopolus, they will perform an evening of seasonal swing and jazz favorites. Tickets for this event are available at the door for $20, with a discount of $10 for seniors.
The Chelmsford Community Band has a 75-piece Concert Band and a 20-piece Jazz Ensemble made of dedicated volunteer musicians with a proud tradition of bringing live musical performances to this community since 1972. The band is a 501(c)3 nonprofit supported by grants from local businesses, arts organizations, and your contributions. The 2026-27 season has been generously aided by a Massachusetts Cultural Council grant for Creative Experiences.
