The Markham Concert Band was formed in 1978, and with over 80 members, we are one of the largest community bands in Canada! Band members include young and old from many fields of endeavour, all brought together with one purpose in mind – to serve the community with the best in concert band music.
To help us continue delivering this great music, we would greatly appreciate your financial support of the band – details on our Donations page.
We perform our 4-concert series in the beautiful Flato Markham Theatre, and we can also be seen at many Markham and York Region festivals and events during the summer and fall, including the Markham Village Music Festival, Unionville Festival, and the Markham Fair.
On August 31, 2024 we are delighted to be performing a joint concert at the Unionville Millennium Bandstand with Knabenkapelle Nördlingen a Youth Orchestra from Germany. They have performed at many different venues and events, such as Oktoberfest, major sporting events and award ceremonies. The orchestra has also done international concert tours to Japan, Australia and Canada, and are celebrating their 100 year anniversary in 2024. Here’s a sample of their music: Elvis in Concert
