The band getting ready to play

About the Band

The Sackville Community Band is comprised 100% of talented volunteers of varying ages and musical experiences. We are professional musicians, retired musicians, local music teachers, and ordinary citizens all brought together by our love for making music. Not only do we play instruments, many of our members write and arrange scores for the band; some of us even sing; others help administratively. Our mission statement is to bring talented musicians together to perform quality music in support of local non‑commercial events as well as to foster music education in the community. Membership in the band is free.


What kind of music do we play?

We play a challenging assortment of music including classical pieces, movie scores, religious/traditional songs, golden oldies and original compositions/arrangements done by band members. We regularly feature band members as vocalists at our concerts.
