Boroondara Brass Inc
Boroondara Brass Inc is a group of bands consisting of Boroondara Brass, Boroondara Harmony Brass, Boroondara Youth Brass and Boroondara Wind Symphony. Boroondara Brass is a mainly youth led band based in Melbourne, Australia.

The brass banding journey of many of the current Band's members began in the early 90's when as youth band members, they started competing in junior grades, progressively winning their way through the grades until in 1995 they won the Junior Victorian A grade Championship at Box Hill.

Their success in the junior grades, and the fact that members were starting to reach 19 years of age, led to a decision to form a band to compete in open grades. Between 1998 and 2000, this band won three National Championships, in Open D and C grade sections, and between 1996 and 2000, received the Merv Simpson "Victorian Band of the Year" Award. This award is given by the Victorian Bands' League for the most successfully competitive band. In 1998 the band recorded a CD titled "Youth 'n' Brass".

Under their current title of Boroondara Brass, the band have been Victorian B Grade Champions in 2007, 2006, 2005, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000. In 2002 the band finished a close second in the Open B Grade National Championships. The band received the Merv Simpson in 2006.

Boroondara Youth Brass
Boroondara Youth Brass was created in 2002 and registered as a competing Junior Band (Members under 19 years of age) with the VBL in 2003. Boroondara Youth Brass rehearses on Wednesday nights under the baton of Danny van Bergen, who also conducts the senior band.

In 2005 and 2007 Boroondara Youth Brass received the Merv Simpson Award for the most successful band in Victoria. This is a great achievement as the award given by the VBL covers bands in all Senior and Junior grades.

The Band consists primarily of beginner players, who are regularly supported by members of Boroondara Brass, especially at competition times when the younger members of Boroondara Brass play with and help the beginners. Members of Boroondara Youth Brass can be promoted to Boroondara Brass once they have achieved an appropriate performance level, but are invited to attend rehearsals to listen whenever they wish. Boroondara Youth Brass also perform at Community events, including Fairs in the City of Boroondara, and some members join with Boroondara Brass to perform at local events, such as Christmas Carols in the local municipal area.
