​"Absolutely marvelous. Warm congratulations to the whole team Lilac City Brass."​​​​
"And what a start for your band - last night's debut performance was very good. I'm glad I came along - I enjoyed it very much, as I know everyone around me did too."​​​​
Music has a remarkable ability to unite people and uplift spirits. Lilac City Brass provides an inclusive platform for musicians of all ages and skill levels to come together, share their love for music, and contribute to the cultural tapestry of our community.
​
Beyond the joy it brings to its members, Lilac City Brass also has a positive impact on our community as a whole. Through performances at local events, festivals, and community gatherings, the band serves as cultural ambassadors, showcasing the talent and creativity that thrives within our community.
We play a vital role in inspiring and engaging our youth. By offering music education programs, workshops, and performance opportunities, the band can nurture the next generation of musicians, fostering a lifelong appreciation for music and the arts.
​
We believe a community brass band can positively affect well-being and vitality of our city. We create opportunities for connection, celebration, and artistic expression, enriching the lives of residents and contributing to the cultural vibrancy of our city.
