Salem Band is a community band located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.[2] The band performs summer concerts in Salem Square in Old Salem. Other concert venues include the Hanes Auditorium on the campus of Salem College and various churches in and around Forsyth County, North Carolina.
History[edit]
The band was first organized in 1771.[3][4] It began as a mixed trombone ensemble associated with the Moravian church[5] that settled in an area referred to as Wachovia in 1766. As the community grew and new congregations formed, each developed their own bands.[6] Musicians from these separate congregations returned to the Home Moravian Church for special celebrations and performed as the Salem Band. When George Washington toured the states in 1791, the Salem Band performed during his visit.[7] During the American Civil war, Moravians remained neutral; however, members of the Salem Band formed the 26th North Carolina Regiment Band.[8][9][10] In 2014 Salem Band became an independent organization and secured its status as a non-profit 501(c)3 entity.
