The Bedok South Symphonic Band Comprises 70 over dedicated and committed members trained under Mr. David Anthony Glosz, the Band Master, and Mr. Matthew Ong, the Assistant Conductor. Under their guidance, the band has improved tremendously in 2008. The band places importance on being a team player, and this was evident during the band camp, which took place in school. Furthermore, besides the weekly practices in school, the band has participated in several activities and events that have helped boost their confidence, and stoke their passion in music. The activities and events that the band was involved in included the CCA Fair and the Speech Day Parade held in the school, where the band showcased the talents of its members as a group as well as individual instrumentation. The band also put up a strong performance for the Aesthetics Programme Assembly, preparing itself, on hindsight, for bigger things to come. With the experience of rigorous performing in school, as well as a band exchange programme with St. Andrew’s Secondary School, the band took a step further and performed at the Festival Winds & Brass Concert@ Victoria Concert Hall in addition to My First Concert@ St. Andrew’s Junior College Auditorium. As part of the preparation for the Singapore Youth Festival Competition 2009, the band will be having an overseas tour to Kuala Lumpur in March 2009.
