Download prospectus - Toronto Band Festival 2019 with Frank Ticheli

I am inviting full and partial ensembles (student and community bands) to combine for a spectacular gala concert in the lead up to Canada Day 2019.

We will rehearse and perform together as a festival ensemble in addition to opportunities for bands to perform individually. There is nothing quite like musicians coming together in this way to celebrate their talent in great venues in front of appreciative audiences.

I look forward to working with you as we prepare for this special celebration of North American band music. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have based on my great experience working with KIconcerts on previous festivals like this.

Frank Ticheli
Artistic Director



The performance venues were world class, working with Frank Ticheli was a once in a lifetime experience, but what’s even more is that everything from the hotel, to the tour guides, to the coach drivers, to the logistics, even down to the food was outstanding!
