Brisbane Symphonic Band

The Brisbane Symphonic Band is one of Brisbane's premier community bands with origins that date back to 1976. The Band - currently conducted by Stefanie Smith - regularly performs in own series concerts, at local and international festivals and as part of the Brisbane City Council's Bands in the Park program.

The Band provides an opportunity for adult musicians in the Brisbane community to come together and share their enjoyment for performing music. With the current success and expansion of the Instrumental Music Program in Queensland schools, the Band also provides an opportunity for students to continue with their musical experience, even if music is not their chosen career path.

As a community organisation, the Band is committed to providing members of the community with opportunities to appreciate and experience live music.
