Welcome

Welcome to the Melbourne Staff Band website.

The MSB 2013 engagement calendar will see us visiting corps both large and small, located in suburban Melbourne and rural Victoria and even a few ‘border crossings’ into New South Wales with weekend visits to the country town of Deniliquin and the Hurstville corps in Sydney.

For a second time, the band will provide musical support at the Belgrave Heights 62nd Easter Convention on Easter Sunday afternoon and evening. Almost 2,000 people will gather for bible teaching and stirring worship in the idyllic bush setting in the hills outside Melbourne.

You’ll shortly hear lots about the band’s concert on 4th May with our guests Soul Factor Gospel choir from Adelaide. This promises to be a great evening of music with choir and band joining together for an inspirational finale.

The band continues to see the benefit of encouraging young people in their music ministry through the Future Brass program. We look forward to meeting up again with returning delegates and hopefully lots of new ones over the August weekend.

The band will participate and support the Western Victoria Spring Celebration, under the ‘big top’ at Halls Gap in November and conclude the year supporting the visit of General Linda Bond to Melbourne.

We hope that you’ll regularly visit the website throughout the year and we’ll certainly try and keep the website up to date!

Chronicles - Released!!

This recording coincides with the band’s UK tour culminating in the grand festival at the Royal Albert Hall to mark the ISB’s 120th Anniversary in June 2011. The disc becomes a mighty paean of praise and worship with the band presenting a varied program built on Christian songs of every era arranged by some of the Army’s finest composers. It’s an exciting almost exclusively fresh repertoire that will gladden and entertain as well as uplift and inspire.
