Gloucestershire's only community wind band
Welcome to the website of Gloucester Charter Concert Band (or just "Charter Band" for short). Founded in 1983, we are a group of keen musicians of all ages and abilities from the local community.
Hear us!
Do you adore live music? Do you miss the Big Band sound of the 30s and 40s? Do you enjoy the great showtunes? You'll love one of our many concerts and we look forward to seeing you there - find out when and where we're playing.
Join us!
Do you have a trumpet hidden away in the attic somewhere and wish you had an excuse for playing it? Are you just starting out on the flute and would like to get together with a friendly group of musicians once a week for a bit of extra practice? Are you (dare we ask) a bit of an exhibitionist who just fancies performing exciting saxophone solos in front of the crowds at one of our gigs? Charter Band will welcome you - find out more about joining GCCB.
