Join us!
New members face quite a lot of hard work getting to know the repertoire. A Banda expects newcomers to be able to play their instrument when they join. Horn players should be able to read music, but exceptions can be made for those with extremely gifted ears |
|
Our teachers make sure that the band attains the best possible sound and expression. They are responsible for ensuring that we play together and achieve the right sound picture. They also function as conductors on jobs. |

For young people, A Banda offers specialized instruction in Brazilian dance. Our young dance group is called Børne A Banda, which is Danish for "A Banda for Children". Members of Børn A Banda are taught by A Banda's own adult dancers and get to perform at many A Banda jobs, backed up by the full A Banda horn and percussion sections.

If
you enjoy Brazilian street music, like to have fun and know how
to play some of the applicable instruments (or to dance samba),
A Banda could be for you! We welcome everyone without regard to
gender, nationality, age, religion or race.
The
band meets two to four times a month for obligatory practice sessions,
which are led by two professional musicians: one for the percussion
section, the other for the horns. Teaching comprises the current
repertoire, plus new rhythms and songs. We usually learn two to
four new numbers a year.
