Why Join Us?

You love Melodicas / our Band
That's already a very sound reason to join us!
(though you might want to continue to read this)

Professional Tutors and Players
Led by our Chief Conductor, Mr Julian Eramela, our members are all experienced pianists with a high proportion of ABRSM Grade 8 and Diploma pianists. Performing skills, musical knowledge and valuable advice for improvements can surely be learnt from these experienced members and tutors.
Moreover, learning from the experiences of the tutors is surely useful for enhancing the musical aspect of the other junior members.

Warm Family
Good music comes not only from skills and techniques. We always aim to provide a warm atmosphere for students to exchange their ideas not just in music. Hence various outings and sociable activities are organised throughout the year.

Professional Equipments and Unique Instrument
Melodicas are easy to carry with a portable case supplied. Even with its small size, many solos can be played due to a wide range of notes being able to be played. Hence Melodicas can be played within an ensemble as well as a solo instrument.
We only use the Japanese-made Suzuki Melodicas, which are said to be the best Melodica manufacturer in the world with its fine quality and durability in an acceptable price range.

Chances for Holistic Development
While playing amazing music pieces written by famous composers in different periods, members can improve their musical knowledge and performance skills.
