We’re a friendly, dynamic and sociable concert band which performs across Dorset including Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Wimborne and Ferndown. We’re one of the largest concert bands in Dorset with around 65 musicians of all ages, playing instruments of all shapes and sizes. We play a variety of music to a high standard and offer a supportive environment for musicians; and we contribute to our local community where we can.
*We’re not able to rehearse or perform concerts together as a band at the moment due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We’re following all the government guidelines to keep our band members safe and are keeping a close eye on the regulations around music.*
See where we’re playing next in the area and what a typical year of concerts looks like for us.
We rehearse every Thursday from 7:30-9:30pm at Queen’s Park Infant Academy. We play everything from Abba to Orpheus in the Underworld.
We’re always happy to see new faces. Join us if you’re 14 years +. Ideally you’ll be around Grade 5+ standard and have some band experience.

We would have loved to have been at a rehearsal tonight, but due to all the current restrictions we had the launch of zoom Quiz League 4, this evening! We had rounds of guess the film, news stories, bridges and 'emoticon' brands. Well done to 'Don't hate me because I'm flutiful' for winning this week's quiz 👍🏻😂🤪. #onlinefun #zoom #onlinequiz #StayHomeStaySafeCovid19 ... See moreSee less

Looking back at band's positive moments in 2020 - Bournemouth and District Concert Band
www.bournemouthanddistrictconcertband.co.uk
We look back at our band's positive moments in 2020, from online quizzes and bingo to clapping for the NHS and keyworkers, a charity walk and beach clean.The programme the band performed was spectacular and very well thought out for our audience. There was something for everyone and the balance of classical, pop and cheese was perfect. The band were totally professional and it was clear that their shared love of performing simply gripped the audience.”
