The New Horizons Community Band. This movement was started by Roy Ernst, a professor at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester New York. The program is aimed at fulfilling the passion for music of many retired men and women who did not have time to devote to this interest during their working years. The New Horizons movement has been so successful that it has spread all over North America and has over 170 member bands. The bands are linked on line and many of the member musicians connect when they travel south in winter or go on vacation.  It also offers music workshops that its members can travel to and learn from some of the finest band leaders in North America.
