Welcome!

The Kearny Mesa Concert Band (KMCB) was established at Mesa College in 1972 as a showcase for older, talented amateur and professional musicians.  Now the oldest continuously active community band in San Diego, it is also one of the largest with 60 members.  Although younger musicians are active in the band, the average age is over 55.  The band is now a continuing education class of the San Diego Community College District.  Many of our members are retired military musicians and others have played with the top names of the Big Band Era.  The band performs a variety of music from classic to contemporary pieces, original compositions, Broadway show tunes as well as traditional marches.  Our programs have also featured instrumental and vocal soloists.

We welcome you and hope to provide you an opportunity to perform, improve your musical skills and have fun.
