National Band of New Zealand
The 2014 National Band of New Zealand have been invited to perform in South-East China and South Korea.
Nationwide
The National Band of New Zealand is selected to showcase New Zealand’s best brass and percussion players and New Zealand’s unique brass repertoire at international concert and contest events.
This year the National Band and Kapa Haka group has been invited by the China Performing Arts Agency (CPAA) to perform concerts over a ten-day period in South-East China from 4 to 14 September and by the Korea International Wind Band Festival (KIWBF) to perform two concerts at the 2014 Festival in Seoul from 16 to 19 September.
The highly professional standard attained by the National Band on past tours makes it difficult to realise that the members are mostly amateur musicians, selected from 52 community bands throughout the nation and representing all walks of life.
Our cause is to raise funds to send the Band and Kapa Haka group on this tour.
About us
Community based brass bands teach people of all ages and experince to play brass and percussion instruments. With a little home practice it doesn't take long for a new player to be able to perform with a training band. And with a lot of practice many players go on to study music and make music their career.
