Closing Concert featuring The Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy sponsored by Carol Riera PREC*, RE/MAX Anchor Realty
The Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN), in operation since 1940, is comprised of thirty five professional full-time musicians whose primary role within the Royal Canadian Navy is to support Naval Operations, ceremonial events, and public outreach initiatives. Currently under the direction of Lieutenant (Navy) Ben Van Slyke, the Band provides musical support to ceremonial events such as the annual Remembrance Day and Battle of Atlantic parades, the opening of the Provincial Legislature, and official visits from heads of state. Naval Operations are supported through the Band’s performances at ship arrivals and departures, change of command ceremonies, and other Canadian Armed Forces functions at Canadian Forces Base Esquimalt and around the region.
The Naden Band is a role model of service, discipline and musical excellence, regularly engaging in collaborations with musical institutions in the local community. Recent collaborations include the University of Victoria’s Faculty of Music, the Victoria Symphony, and the Canadian College of Performing Arts.
