Missing Band? Wish you had something to work toward?
Join the FIRST EVER province-wide Virtual Holiday Band Concert!
Band musicians of all ages and skill levels can come together to participate in SBA's Virtual Holiday Concert.
Who can participate?
Anyone with at least 1 year of band experience. There 6 different "Bands" to choose from, with varied levels of music difficulty - participants simply select the option that is right for you.
How much does it Cost? Nothing... participation is FREE. But registration is required as space is limited.
The Concert will include:
- High school and Grade 7/8 mass band performances - involving students from all around the province, not just one school
- Community Band performances
- "Y'All Come" performances - mixing adult & student musicians
Participants will be provided with their music, a click track & simple instructions to make a good recording. Recordings must be submitted no later than November 23 to allow for the concert to be compiled.

Which Band Should I Join?
As space is limited for each of the "Bands", we ask everyone to register for a maximum of two bands/songs.
Students can register in ONE grade group AND one of the "Y'All Come" bands. The "Y'All Come" bands will be a mix of community band and youth musicians from all over Saskatchewan.
Students - your Band Director may have already encouraged you to sign up for a specific grade level. If not, the choice is yours. If, for example, you are in grade 8 but think you can play the grade 9/10 Band's piece well - feel free to register for the Grade 9/10 Band instead of the Grade 7/8 Band.
Adult musicians - you can select from the Y'All Come bands.
Most importantly - We want everyone to have FUN.
