Darwin City Brass Band Musical Director Jack Risos invites attendees behind the scenes to witness the band’s rehearsals and gain insight into their community music contributions.

“We’ll choose some new music for the band to learn, and we’ll choose some music to improve, so that people will see the process of preparing for performances,” he says.

“It should be an easy going and fun night. You’ll be entertained, get to see how a music group rehearses, and have the opportunity to meet the band members and other audience members.”

The repertoire promises to resonate with all generations, featuring familiar melodies from movie and TV themes, as well as hits from iconic artists such as The Beatles, Tina Turner, ABBA, Sting, and more. The evening’s musical journey is set to captivate with a diverse selection of timeless tunes.

In addition to the Brass Band’s harmonious sounds, guests are treated to a catered supper and special performances by a guest pianist and vocalists, enhancing the night with extra layers of musical delight.

The Darwin City Brass Band remains a stalwart presence at numerous community events, embodying a commitment to enriching local culture through their spirited musical performances.
