Teck Whye Concert Band was officially formed in 2003 after departing from a long illustrious history of a marching band tradition.
The band motto, Unique and Versatile, propels the band from the fields to the concert stage with an intrepid spirit for excellence in performance.
Under the direction of Mr. Tan Beng Wee, the concert band at its infancy, remarkably achieved a bronze medal in the 2005 Singapore Youth Festival (SYF) Central Judging of Concert Bands.
The current membership stands at sixty, and together with the Teck Whye Alumni Band, we aspire to be the ultimate platform for character development of our students and aesthetic expression through music.

Hey my fellow Band members, I've put Gypsy Dance up. Listen to it and pay attention to every single details. Noticed the change of the layout? I wanna make it vibrant like what we are! Agree? Few more weeks to SYF. Don't think we still got plenty of time. I've been reminding you guys for umpteen times already. You should know what you are supposed to do as a responsible musician. Practice part that you're not familiar with and not those you're familiar.
Another point, sometimes the majors a harsh on you, but its for your own good. We didn't scold you guys for nothing. So... do what you're supposed to do. =)
That's all i guessed. I'll update more for the upcoming exchange.
