Provincial Honour
Bands
​The Provincial Honour Bands are auditioned ensembles that bring students together from across our fine province for an exceptional and intense music-making experience that inspires growth, collaboration, and community. Guest conductors of the highest quality are invited to lead these ensembles and inspire the students to reach new musical heights together. Each honour band culminates in a public concert for the community.​​​​​​​
