Harmonix Concert Band
Harmonix Concert Band has a dedicated core membership of 35 enthusiastic musicians, comprising of brass, woodwind and percussion. Hayden Dalton is the current musical director. Our performance focus centres on classic and contemporary wind band repertoire, balanced out with lighter selections such as film and popular music.
The band seasonally performs at local community events with other local school and community ensembles. During 2020 and 2021, whilst rehearsals weren’t able to commence, Harmonix Concert Band developed a series of isolated recordings.
Harmonix Concert Band is always welcoming to new members. Potential new players are encouraged to come down on a Monday night to check us out!
We rehearse at Baulkham Hills Community Centre. 390 Windsor Road, Baulkham Hills. Monday nights during public school terms. 7.30 - 9.00pm.
