Concert Band

Despite not having any musical background, I have learnt how to play the flute after investing much time and effort. Although it has been a challenging and exhausting experience, I have learnt to uphold values such as resilience and perseverance. My journey in Band may not be always smooth sailing, but I am glad to have had the chance to meet many people with various musical backgrounds, as well as forge several friendships that I believe will be long-lasting.

Mission

To instil a lifelong passion for music and provide meaningful opportunities for students to perform, collaborate, and develop leadership skills.

Highlights

Greeted by the sight of gleaming instruments and a cacophony of musical tones, one will surely be overwhelmed when stepping into our band room. Past that, our bandsmen can look forward to a fulfilling journey with musical instruments that are specially assigned according to their physique and personality.

From playing majestic symphonies to sizzling up tempo pop hits and heartwrenching ballads, this year, our students worked under the tutelage of professional musicians during an interactive exchange programme involving other school bands. Through camaraderie and discipline, students took part in challenging telematches and mass precision drills and worked together to put up a combined performance.

At AI, a bandsman learns more than instrumental skills. Through our holistic programme, students will acquire invaluable life skills and experiences that will put them in good stead to succeed in life beyond secondary school.
