About the NLBA 

The Newfoundland and Labrador Band Association is a non-profit organization whose mission is to support and advocate for wind bands. Our goal is to create a network of support that connects musicians in all corners of our province in order to strengthen and develop bands in Newfoundland and Labrador. ​
 

The NLBA began to form in the summer of 2020, with a handful of band enthusiasts coming together to discuss the need for a supportive band community that encompasses not only school bands, but community bands, military/cadet bands, and church bands alike. The founding committee of the NLBA is grateful to the CMEA and the NLMEA for their advice and support throughout the startup of the association.

​

As a proud chapter of the Canadian Band Association and an affiliate of the NL Music Educators Association, the NLBA hopes to bring together resources, opportunities, and connect ensembles through community support to assist in achievinging program goals.
