The Greater Brisbane Wind Ensemble (formerly Laurie Young Concert Band) is a not-for-profit community concert band based in Logan, Queensland.

Greater Brisbane Wind Ensemble (GBWE) is a woodwind, brass and percussion ensemble dedicated to providing community access to the practice, performance and display of works of music. We have contributed to Brisbane community music events for over 30 years, providing high-quality entertainment and program variety. Our repertoire ranges from light classical to film and popular classics. We rehearse once a week at Canterbury College, Waterford. If you think you would like to join a friendly and active band, if you enjoy playing your instrument and think you have something to offer, make us a friend, and DM or call. We'd be delighted to hear from you.

A gentle reminder to all those musicians of Logan. There’s a great opportunity for you join with the Greater Brisbane Wind Ensemble (your City’s growing community band). We welcome concert band instrumentalists to our Sunday rehearsals at Canterbury College Performing Arts Theatre from 4:30 pm.

Check us out at www.gbwe.org

If you play flute, clarinet, horn, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, tuba, bass guitar or percussion … we want you! If you’ve been playing your instrument for three years or more (even if it was a while ago) you should play the music reasonably comfortably. Go on show us your community spirit. Logan needs us.

26/01/2026

If you play a wind or percussion instrument, or used to play an instrument in a concert band, … give us a go. We need you to build community music and fun in our area.

We welcome solid players of flute, clarinet, saxophone, horn, trumpet, trombone, euphonium/baritone, tuba, or percussion.

If you can read music but can’t remember where you put your instrument, maybe you’d like to join our percussion section (glockenspiel, bass drum, triangle, timpani, etc).

DM if you're keen! We kick off the year this Sunday!
