Membership

Queensland Wind and Brass (QWAB) was formed in December 1989 and arose from a need for a high standard musical group for post-secondary musicians. The group consists of amateur and professional woodwind, brass and percussion players in Year 12 and upwards, and is run by the players themselves.

Applications for membership is welcomed from woodwind, brass and percussion players, however numbers are limited in each section. While QWAB is unauditioned, we perform at a high standard, so a minimum standard of AMEB Grade 7 or equivalent is strongly encouraged. New members will be subject to a trial period and may need to demonstrate their ability.

All members of QWAB are required to abide by the information contained in the Players’ Handbook and Code of Conduct. If you are interested in joining QWAB, please contact the secretary via secretary@qwab.com.au for a current copy of the Players’ Handbook and Code of Conduct.
