The Bukit Merah Secondary School Concert Band traces its origins back to its establishment

as a Military Band. Evolving over time, it transitioned into a Symphonic Band before settling

as a Concert Band. Today, under the leadership of Ms. Esther Lim, the band thrives with a

fusion of her musical passion and dedication to the students.

The Bukit Merah Concert Band (BMCB) actively participates in various events such as the

Singapore Youth Festival Arts Presentation, community programs, the school’s bi-annual

musical “Festivo” and public performances across Singapore. Additionally, the Bukit Merah

Percussion Ensemble, formed under BMCB, provides additional platforms to showcase our

students' talents. By offering diverse performance opportunities, we aim to cultivate

resilience, prioritization skills, and focus among our members.

Beyond musical education, BMCB strives to foster a nurturing environment where members

develop qualities such as empathy, care, and self-direction. We prioritize providing ample

opportunities for our students to hone their strengths and cultivate new skill sets. Through

organizing band performances and bonding activities, students learn essential

organizational, leadership, and effective communication skills. As they progress through

BMCB, members graduate as resilient, confident, and contributing individuals, equipped with

collaborative skills, empathetic values, and a commitment to lifelong learning.
