Hobart City Band

Hobart City Band Inc. has over 90 members, including people relatively new to music through to highly-experienced, professionally-qualified musicians. Ages range from 12 years to over 60, with the majority being under 30. There are four ensembles under the Hobart City Band banner, including Wind Symphony, Swing Band, Youth Winds, and Junior Brass.

Hobart City Band is a member band of the Tasmanian Bands League, drawing its players from Hobart and the surrounding district.

Like every band in the League, it rehearses weekly through the year, plays for its own community at fairs, services and civic occasions, and brings a full complement to the State Championships each winter — the one weekend when the whole of Tasmanian banding is in the same building.

Bands of this kind have always run on the same two things: someone willing to conduct, and enough players willing to turn up on a wet Tuesday. Everything else follows from that.
