North Coast Symphonic Band Embarks on 45th Season Rehearsals are under way for the 45th season of the North Coast Symphonic Band (NCSB), a nonprofit community performing arts group composed of local musicians of all ages who enjoy networking, learning from each other, and maintaining their skill levels in a positive and supportive environment. The band is conducted by Terry Dahlgren of Warrenton, Oregon. The NCSB performs four concerts per year at the historic Liberty Theatre in Astoria, Oregon.
New members who own their own instruments, read music, and play at the advanced high school level or higher are encouraged to contact us if they would like to join. Many sections of the NCSB are full with wait lists but there are currently openings for clarinet.
Terry Dahlgren will return as conductor and musical director for his third season with the North Coast Symphonic Band. Dahlgren was a music educator for thirty-two years before retiring from Seaside Public Schools in 2021. Board President Brian Bergman says, “Terry Dahlgren is a good fit for the North Coast Symphonic Band. He has great rapport with musicians and audiences love him as well.”
