Albany City Wind Ensemble

Albany City Wind Ensemble ACWE is a 50 piece concert band based in Albany, Western Australia. www.albanycitywindensemble.com.au ACWE makes music together every Monday night.

The Albany City Wind Ensemble is a concert band of more than 50 red-hot musicians. We have musicians of every age, musical skill and walk of life. Our director, Sue Findlay certainly cracks the whip at these rehearsals and we work very hard. But we are like one big crazy family and we never pass up an opportunity to get together. Jazz, big band, popular and light classics are among the styles of m

usic that we love to perform. We regularly invite special guest dancers, vocalists, comedians and actors to perform with us, making our music even more special. Audiences in Albany, Denmark and Mt Barker can choose from a selection of ACWE performances each year; including YouthCARE fundraising concerts, our very popular Cushion Concerts for Kids, the Peter Watson Seniors Christmas Concert and our annual Gala Variety Concert.
