Connecting Community Through Music Since 1965.
A NEW NAME FOR OUR NEXT CHAPTER
The organization you know is moving forward.
For more than 60 years, we have brought musicians and audiences together through the power of live music.
Melbourne BandWorks gives our growing family of ensembles one broader identity while honoring the history that brought us here.
Our History
Our Next Chapter
WHY THE NEW NAME?
A broader identity for everything we do.
Melbourne Municipal Band sounded like one performing group, but our organization is home to multiple ensembles, many musicians and a wide range of musical experiences.
Melbourne BandWorks better represents the people who perform the music, the community that experiences it and the support that keeps it playing.
WHAT MAKES BANDWORKS... WORK?
Built on three pillars.
MUSIC.
What brings us together.
From concert band favorites to jazz, chamber music and special performances, music is at the center of everything we do.
COMMUNITY.
What gives the music meaning.
Our performances create opportunities for musicians and audiences of all ages to connect through live music.
SUPPORT.
What keeps the music playing.
Volunteers, donors, sponsors and community partners make our ensembles and programs possible.
WHAT IS STAYING THE SAME?
Nearly everything.
Our name is moving forward, but the music, people and mission you know remain at the heart of Melbourne BandWorks.
