The Southampton Community Band has been an important piece of Southampton’s cultural history. Formed in 1998, by Gil Guglielmi, former Trevose resident and Centennial music teacher, and his friend George Lynch, the Southampton Community Band has been performing a diversity of music for 25 years.
Performing four live subscription concerts each year, the band presents concert programs ranging from great band literature from Percy Grainger, Leroy Anderson, and Irving Berlin to the great marches of John Philip Sousa, compilations of some of the greatest Broadway musicals to movie soundtracks that make you tap your toes and sing out loud. The magic to communicate to all generations through music is evident at each live performance.
The Southampton Community Band continues Dr. Guglielmi’s dream of teaching school students great band literature and providing each graduating high school senior a scholarship to the student’s chosen college, university or tech school. Many of our former students come back to play with the band during their summer break.
