The Grand Rapids Symphonic Band was formed in 1978 to fulfill a need for an adult concert band in the West Michigan Community. The GRSB consists of 80 talented musicians from all walks of life. The Grand Rapids Symphonic Band is a premiere adult/community band that fosters excellence in performance, supports instrumental music as a lifelong experience, and contributes to the enrichment of cultural life in the greater Grand Rapids area.
