Queen City Freedom Band

The Queen City Freedom Band (QCFB) is the LGBTQ+ concert band in Cincinnati, OH. Open to woodwinds, brass, and percussion players of all abilities and orientations - including allies - the QCFB places a high emphasis on community building through music. We are a “group in formation” member of LBGA; the Lesbian and Gay Band Association. The band has performed concerts at Urban Artifact, Clark Montessori School, and Taft’s Brewporium. Past programs have included: House of Horrors, Singles Awareness Day, Good As Gold: A Celebration of 50 years of the LGBTQ rights movement, and Pride month concerts. Dr. Jon Noworyta is the music director and conductor.

Not only can students be members of this band , the volunteer need is to support the band as ushers. Guiding people thru the venues and supporting the LGBTQIA community
