Brooklyn Air - MMC Virtual Band

When our physical rehearsals came to an abrupt halt during the COVID-19 pandemic, the members of the Metropolitan Music Community created a virtual band to perform Michael Markowski’s “Brooklyn Air” under the direction of Jeff W. Ball. In this time of extreme unrest and uncertainty, we want to share something positive with our friends and supporters while we continue our work of building an inclusive musical community for all.

We wish to make more projects like this possible, please consider donating to help us make more like this in the future. Thank you and please enjoy “Brooklyn Air”.
