Adult Community Concert Band (Delta)
The Delta Music Makers Community Band is looking for players of any instrument, but particularly low brass, i.e. trombone, baritone, French horn and tuba. High school experience or equivalent is helpful, but not required.

The Delta Music Makers provides a warm welcome to those who have not picked up their horns for many years. We balance serious rehearsing with lots of fun and socializing.

The band rehearses in the village of Ladner, Delta, at Delta Secondary School on Tuesday evenings, 7:30pm to 9:30pm. Ladner is about 15 minutes from Richmond and 30 minutes from either Surrey or Vancouver, and many of our members come from further afield.

The rehearsals are run as a night-school course through Delta Continuing Education.

Any musician interested in joining the DMM, on any instrument, should contact Music Director Curt Jantzen, cjband@telus.net, or Assistant Music Director Margaret Behenna.

We play a number of concerts each year in Southwestern British Columbia, and we like to travel. Previous tours include Disneyland 1988, Disneyworld in 1991, Reno/Lake Tahoe Nevada in 1994, Canyonlands of Utah and Arizona in 1996, Great Britain 1999, Reno 2001, Europe 2002, Maritimes 2005 and Scotland/Ireland 2007.

Concerts performed in the GVRD area and BC have included the Delta “Concerts in the Park” series, Delta Hospital Extended Care, Delta Christmas concert, Kitsilano Showboat, Kerrisdale Days, Ladner days, Metrotown, English Bay, Chemainus Days, Whistler, Richmond Seniors, Minoru Seniors Centre, St. Augustine House, Tsawwassen Kinsmen, Peace Arch border, ...

The band is incorporated under the Societies Act of British Columbia, enjoys Canadian tax-deductible status and is managed by a board of directors. Any musicians wishing to join should first contact our Music Director, Mr. Curt Jantzen.
