Brunei Music Society

The Brunei Music Society is a voluntary group formed in 1972[1] arranging public concerts by performing musicians and supporting the development of musical activities in Brunei Darussalam.[2]

Types of programme and performers

The concerts are mainly of Western classical music performed by visiting artists. However concerts of Asian music and modern light Western music are also presented, and a "young musicians of Brunei" concert held in most years. (A full archive of past concerts is available on the society's website.) Performances are usually held in the Orchid Garden hotel in Bandar Seri Begawan (the capital), but it is sometimes possible to arrange a second concert at the Panaga Club, in Seria, the oil-production area (Brunei Shell) in the West of Brunei.
