About Us:

The Gainesville Community Band is a member of the Association of Concert Bands. It was founded in 1974 with eleven members. In 1978, the Gainesville City Commission passed a resolution designating the GCB as the Official Community Band of Gainesville. The Band is funded by a diverse group of patrons and sponsors and is an all-volunteer, non-profit [501 c(3)] organization. With a current a roster of about 80 members, the Band is made up of teachers, professors, scientists, business professionals, students, physicians, contractors, realtors, trades-persons, and retirees. Several professional musicians, who perform with other area groups, volunteer their talents with the Gainesville Community Band. The Director of the GCB is Dr. Gerald Poe, who assumed the baton from Mr. Richard Hord in 2003. Mr. Hord conducted the band for over 25 years.
