NZCBA Band Weekends are for people to get together and play great repertoire in a concert band setting. Anyone can join, as long as they play wind, brass, percussion or double bass, and can read/play grade 3 to 4 concert band music (about grade 4 in exams).
This is the perfect MENZA Conference warm up! Maybe play on your second instrument? But for sure, challenge your students to come along.
