We are
excited that you are visiting our web site. The Gold Coast City Brass Band is
here to provide unique Musical experiences for any occasion.
The Band relies on the dedication of volunteer musicians who share their love of music and the sound of brass with the public.
The Gold Coast City Brass Band is registered with the Queensland Band Association and currently holds a "D" grade ranking.
The Band undertakes civic responsibilities such as ANZAC Day marches and services. It also performs regularly at community events and gatherings. The Band has performed in concert at the Gold Coast Arts Centre and at a variety of eisteddfods and band competitions such as the Queensland State Championships.
As well as dedicated excellence in performance, the Band is committed to providing quality tuition to young musicians keen to continue the brass band tradition. The Youth Band provides an opportunity for young musicians to learn their art and enjoy the fellowship of other young players. The involvement with the Senior Band establishes mentoring relationships that strengthen the development of young musicians with the solid experience of accomplished musicians.
