Founded in 1924, and re-formed in 1966 as the “Tallahassee Community Band,” Capital City Band has been associated with Tallahassee State College since 1970. Known as “Capital City Band of TSC,” the Band performs a fall and a spring concert in TSC’s Turner Auditorium, and regularly performs throughout the year in and around the community including at Springtime Tallahassee, at Tallahassee’s Winter Festival, at Westminster Oaks’ Fourth of July Celebration, at the Tallahassee Senior Center, and at TSC’s Fall and Spring commencement ceremonies held in the Donald L Tucker Civic Center.
Capital City Band of Tallahassee State College, located in Tallahassee, Florida, is open to TSC students as a student activity and is also open to community members, including students, aged 18 and older, of other institutions. While an audition is not required to join, any person wishing to join should be able to read music and should be able to play a wind instrument, or percussion, at an adequate level of proficiency. In most cases, band members must provide their own instruments.
