Founded in 1993, the Arafura Wind Ensemble (AWE) is located in Australia's Top End City of Darwin.

This Top End concert band (or symphonic wind band) comprises volunteer musicians who love to bring a contemporary range of music to willing audiences.  Most concert band music was composed in the twentieth century and this gives our musicians and audiences alike the opportunity to explore a range of modern sounds that match our current lifestyles.

AWE is the only community-based concert band in the Top End. It enjoys a busy performance schedule in and around the Northern Territory cities of Darwin and Palmerston.

Whether you are looking to join a friendly musical group or need an ensemble to play at your event - you are sure to be happy being involved with the Arafura Wind Ensemble - get in touch, we'd love to hear from you.
