As the name implies, we are a symphonic wind band that likes to play challenging music
from the contemporary repertoire whilst also performing the more traditional and
entertaining items that our audiences enjoy so much.
The band was formed in 2004 as part of a community
link when St. Edmund’s Catholic School, Dover became a
Performing Arts Specialist school.
The band is made up of over 60 ex-professional and
competent players, and has been a tremendous training
ground for students in East Kent, UK, to gain experience alongside more able players.
Since its inception, the band has raised thousands of pounds for local, national and
international charities.
