We are very grateful for the support from the NSW Government Community Building Partnership scheme for our instrument acquisition program - Essential Instruments: Providing access to critical musical instruments for volunteer concert band musicians to support community engagement in the Arts.

Our organisation has been awarded $11,795 to purchase a baritone saxophone and tam tam (pictured below). The essential instruments program provides opportunities for musicians to experience quality musical instruments that would otherwise be impossible to access. Our concerts and repertoire of music will be enhanced, increasing the types of performances and level of audience enjoyment. The baritone saxophone will be available as part of our instrument loan program and the tam tam is an important addition to our percussion instrumentation.
