Lakeland Civic Band

Head down to the Pavilion at 2 p.m. Saturday, July 22 for an afternoon of music with the Lakeland Civic Band. 

The Lakeland Civic Band is a concert band/wind ensemble composed of Lakeland students, high school players, school music teachers, directors and community musicians.  

The band is one of the few community college groups recognized with the John Philip Sousa Foundation’s Sudler Silver Scroll Award for musical excellence and service to the community.  

The Lakeland Civic Band is under the direction of Frank T. Cosenza during the summer term. 

The band was founded by Charles Frank in 1977 with the purpose of providing an opportunity for instrumentalists from the area to perform band literature of the highest quality.
