Music

The Richmond Community High School Band Program is committed to excellence--students involved in the program will be held to the highest standards of personal and performing success. 

Students will understand how personal habits developed through the performing arts play a role in the success of their education, careers, and personal lives. 

Students will understand how music plays a vital role in our community, through performances, workshops, and the visitation of guest artists. 

“There is more art-per-square-inch in Richmond than any other mid-sized city in the United States. When you’re here, you get to see it happen in real time.“

-Antonio J. Garcia, Retired - Director of Jazz Studies, VCUmusic.
