23.01.2022 "If we were a medical school, and you were here as a med student practicing appendectomies, you'd take your work very seriously because you would imagine that some night at 2am someone is going to waltz into your emergency room, and you're going to have to save their life. Well, my friends, someday at 8pm someone is going to walk into your concert hall and bring you a mind that is confused, a heart that is overwhelmed, a soul that is weary. Whether they go out whole again will depend partly on how well you do your craft." ~ Karl Paulnack

23.01.2022 We’re having a BBQ! Eftpos Available! All day til 4pm at Bunnings Cannington

23.01.2022 *** REHEARSAL VENUE CLOSED *** On Sunday 22 March 2020, the Prime Minister announced that non-essential gatherings are suspended for an initial four weeks to reduce the risk of spreading coronavirus (COVID-19) and to give both businesses and people time to fully understand physical distancing requirements. In support of this, the City has made the decision to close all halls, community centres, meeting rooms and pavilions. All bookings in the month of April have been cancelle...d, effective immediately and they will extend the cancellations if required. Stay tuned for when we resume, and we’ll see you soon.

22.01.2022 Looks like the silly season is starting early! Many marvellous performers and musicians involved across these productions, check them out while you can!

20.01.2022 We’re feeling some COVID-related blues at the moment. With the unfortunate cancellation of the Perth Royal Show and the Kelmscott Show, most of our upcoming playing engagements have been cancelled or postponed indefinitely. Please keep an ear out, and if you know of anyone looking for live music for a fair/fete/fun run, let us know!

19.01.2022 We’ll work on making music in isolation for you, perhaps a pop up here and there. Stay safe, and be good to one another.

19.01.2022 A gorgeous new poster from the team at Tone Deaf Comics! We went back to rehearsal last night and were glad to see one of our trombone playing friends join us after a long work-induced break. Will we see you next Thursday?

19.01.2022 Release the information, step and repeat! ConTempo Music are excited to see what our members have brought to Phoenix Theatre Inc’s production of ‘Be More Chill’ which opens TONIGHT. Our regular Thursday rehearsal will be cancelled this week to allow you maximum opportunities to see this show, six shows only! ... Now spread the word!

17.01.2022 Today over 160 buglers will take to the streets of Perth's CBD, Northbridge and Kings Park to commemorate the anniversary of the Armistice of WWI by playing The... Last Post at 11am. Please join us to remember all of those who serve. Map of bugler locations: https://www.rslwa.org.au//remembranc/services/100-buglers/ #100buglers2018 #rslwa #remembranceday #remembranceday2018

15.01.2022 Had a great rehearsal before our gig at the Kelmscott Show on Saturday! Our saxophone sounds even brought us an audience member for some of the evening! Stay tuned for more information about the Kelmscott Show

09.01.2022 Sad news indeed - we had a great time participating a few years ago with the WAHonk! Festival. Stay safe, wash your hands (and your mouthpieces) and support your local artists and businesses in any way you can.

08.01.2022 If you’re excited about coming back to your rehearsals some time soon, or you’re returning back to school with your instruments - have a quick look at these comprehensive guidelines for regularly cleaning your instruments.

06.01.2022 No rehearsal this evening as many of our musicians are busy being Spooktacular! Yes, tonight WAAPA's Symphonic Wind Ensemble celebrates Halloween in style with a rip-snorter of a concert! Featuring John Adams' modern classic A Short Ride in a Fast Machine, and Jeffrey Hass' especially spooky Lost in the Funhouse, this concert will be a refreshingly fun and fiery end to the concert season. Richard Gill Auditorium... 31st Oct 7:30pm Phone 9370 6895 for BOOkings

06.01.2022 Presenting a little light in the darkness, please enjoy us standing nearer to each other than socially appropriate at the time. We couldn’t quite sneak our saxes into a shopping centre, so we made this. ConTempo Music has not yet stood down, as our membership are few and young in age. We will keep you informed with any updates to our rehearsal schedule, and we wish we could be playing for you instead of mourning our lost gigs and events. Stay safe, and support your dear ones.

05.01.2022 We had a great time playing in Yanchep on Saturday! Did we see you there? Thanks for having us Yanchep Central Shopping Centre, we can’t wait to play for you again soon. Our saxophone quartet has a great selection of tunes - why not get in touch if you need something for your next fair, fête or community day.

04.01.2022 Our team had the opportunity to work with the amazing Pauline Gibb in an immersive theatre event last year. We've just found out that a book she wrote "Kiki: Perfectly Imperfect" is nominated for an Author Academy Award. Vote for it here on Page 2, and try and find yourselves a copy!

01.01.2022 Don’t look for us at rehearsal this evening, because we’ll be out investigating this live radio drama! Two shows only, TONIGHT at the Duke of George.
