? About Us - BMCB

The Bukit Merah Concert Band consists of a team of enthusiastic young people who have the same passion for music.
This year, the band's membership had increased to 70+ and it also has undergone quite a number of changes.

Under the baton of our conductor, Ms Esther Lim, we have performed in various events such as Chinese New Year, Sec1 Orientation, Speech Day & National Day.
We also had band exchanges with Henderson, Yu Ying, Si Ling & MacPherson Secondary School.
Through these activities, we had learnt something from the people in other bands.
Last year, the band have lots of events like the Festivo, National Day performances, Competiton etc.. The band also went to Hongkong for masterclass and a school exchange together with a performance at the Disneyland. Now we are working forward for the SYF.

please think over it!!! CAREFULLY
we are going to HONG KONG in 5 DAYS time,
and do you think that we can play all the pieces..PROPERLY
playin TOGETHER as a band
do you know how ms lim was feeling when she was conducting??
do you really want her to leave??
she is the BEST CONDUCTOR I HAVE EVER MET BEFORE!!
she cares about us, just like her child...
and see what we have done??
make her upset and angry!
thats what you want to give her??
PLEASE THINK OVER IT!!!!
sorry, NO PLS, u MUZ think over IT!!!
only 5 days left to hong kong!!
and listen to our playing !!
is it good??
to me its really really bad
Do you know how bad it is??
if you do not know, i will tell you!!
ms lim bought lots of new scores for us...
like pirate of the carribean,sound of music,it's a small world,march beyond the critical point...etc
Do you know why she Doesnt want to play those songs..
its nt doesnt, is CANT
but to keep on repeating the old songs!!
BECAUSE OF OUR PLAYING!!
that's the reason why!!AND our attitude TOWARDS BAND
SO IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO REPEAT THE OLD SONGS AND WANT THE NEW ONES!!
YOU ALL NEED TO BUCK UP AND SHOW TO MS LIM THAT WE ARE READY TO PLAY THOSE SONGS!!!
IF YOU CANNOT PERFECT YOUR PITCHING AND NOTE PROBLEMS..
AND CHOOSE TO LEARN YOUR NOTES, RHYTHEMS etc DURING MS LIM'S COMBINED TIME
,THEN WE CANNOT PROGRESS FORWARDAND FOREVER REMAIN AS A COP/BRONZE BAND IN OTHER PPLS HEART
GUYS!!JIAYOUS!!!!
ONE BAND,ONE HEART,ONE SPIRIT,ONE SOUND...
