Based in West Sussex, Bognor Regis Concert Band is Bognor's very own concert band.   

The band performs regularly at the Bognor bandstands, on the Seafront and in Hotham Park. Annual engagements include the popular "Proms in the Park", the opening of the Arundel Fringe Festival and concerts on Bognor Regis's Bandstand.  Other engagements have included Worthing Assembly Hall, Felpham Village Hall, St Paul's Church, Chichester, Alexandra Theatre and St Wilfrid's Church. 
Instruments  ♪♫♪
Flutes, Piccolo, Oboes, Clarinets (Bb, Alto and Bass), Saxophones (Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Baritone), Trumpets, Trombones, French Horn, Euphonium, Tuba, Electric Bass Guitar, Drum Kit and Percussion (including xylophone, glockenspiel and timpani).
It could be said that a "Concert Band" is like an orchestra where all the strings have been replaced with an enlarged Clarinet and Saxophone section.  It is not the same as a "Big Band", "Brass Band" or a "Marching Band”.  
Repertoire  ♪♫♪
Due to the versatility of the Concert Band format, there is a wide range of music arranged for it.  Our repertoire includes marches, Classical favourites, Pop, Jazz, Swing, TV, Film and Show Music.  We aim to play music to suit all tastes.  
About the Band  ♪♫♪
Since its formation it has grown in both size and reputation and today displays the combined musical talent of about thirty local musicians. Our musicians include amateurs, semi-professional players, teachers and young students.  We are a community band in every sense!
