Friday 26th March 2021 - Australian Army Band Newcastle
The Australian Army Band Newcastle has existed as the Hunter Region’s own military band since 1861. Like all Australian Army bands, the Australian Army Band Newcastle is capable of performing a wide variety of musical styles and genres suited to most occasions.
The band's make up is constructed around a wind ensemble though it also features a Pipes and Drums section making it a very versatile package. The band is primarily made up of Army reserve, or part time musicians. These musicians are members of the local community who, in addition to their normal employment, are employed on a casual basis by the Australian Army. The band is heavily invested in the support and promotion of the Australian Defence Force, whilst striving to develop music and musicians within the Hunter region.
