Welcome.

Greetings All,

Here at New Manchester we strive for the highest in musical development and achievement. Through the FAME program, we help provide musicians the ability to grow and develop through performance and leadership opportunities. 

The instrumental music program offers marching, symphonic winds, jazz, and pep bands. We also offer a chance to perform in the Pit Orchestera for the FAME musical productions. You do not have to be a member of FAME to participate in with the Marching Redcoats.

Feel free to email me to arrange an audition, or if you have any questions about our program. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope to see you soon. Until then... "always forward."

​Marcus D. Chester
Director of Bands
