About the GVCB…
The Greater Victoria Concert Band includes over 100 musicians, all working together to enjoy playing. We have musicians from all walks of life: students, music teachers, engineers, lawyers, accountants and more. We play 10–12 concerts a year throughout the Capital Region and beyond.
Want to join in? The Greater Victoria Concert Band offers you a chance to play with other musicians in any of our four skill levels. The Senior Concert Band, Intermediate Band and adult Junior Band all participate in public performances throughout the year. In our Novice Band, we can teach you how to read music and to play the instrument of your choice.
