We will be starting back up in the Fall of 2025 with a meet and greet on Tuesday, September 2, 2025 at 7pm at Congregation Ahavas Achim Keene. Drop by and find out what we're about. Try an instrument, meet the conductors/instructors, sign up to play!
The Monadnock New Horizons Band(MNHB) started in the Fall 2014 in Keene, NH and it's a band program for adults. You can pick up that instrument you haven't touched in decades or pick up an instrument that you've never played and learn how to play. In a few months, you and your new found band friends will play a concert for your family and friends.
Donna Morse decided to start a New Horizons band in the Monadnock region while attending a New Horizons band camp in August 2013 sponsored by a MA based New Horizons band. The motivation and talent of all the musicians at camp was inspiring. Thinking it would be a great group for the Keene area, she came home and started the process of forming a local band.
Rehearsals/classes will be twice a week for a fall semester and spring semester at Congregation Ahavis Achim in Keene.
