This memorable event promises to enthral all who dare to open their minds for enchantment.

The international Canberra Wind Symphony presents music created for its medium by the finest writers, showcasing the stunningly thrilling sounds this instrumental combination produces. A popular feature of their 20th and 21st century repertoire is works by Australian composers. The freshest contributor to the international wind music colloquy, the Canberra Wind Symphony doesn’t just ‘put on concerts’ for audiences – you’re our guests and we’re all in this together!
