Music scene · New Cassel

New Cassel is a Nassau County hamlet where diverse community traditions, school music programs, and church worship create a varied but local scale sound. Its Long Island location puts New York City within reach, though most performances stay close to home.

Music is heard at church fellowship halls, school auditoriums, the local community center, and private celebrations. There are no music clubs in the hamlet, so public concerts usually require a trip toward Hempstead or into Queens.

Local and regional artists perform here, with musicians from the nearby New York City scene occasionally passing through.

Reach out to local church musicians and school band directors, and offer to perform at community center events. Use New Cassel as a home base while networking into the much larger Long Island and New York City scenes.
