New Horizons Ensembles

"It's never too late to learn" is the motto of New Horizons Ensembles!! New Horizons Music programs provide music making opportunities for adults, generally over the age of 50, including those with no musical experience at all, and those who were active in school music programs, but have been inactive for a long period.

Active participation in music fills important needs for adults—the need for challenging intellectual activity, the need to be a contributing member of a group, and the need to have future exciting events to look forward to. For many people, music can serve these vital needs better than anything else.

Here is what some participants have said:
" Being old, retired, and widowed, I joined the band to have something to
do. Now I don’t know what I would do without it."

" This comes at a time in life when you have the time to devote to it. When you join the band, you stick with it. Not many people drop out. It’s something that holds you."
