Bandung Marching Band Championship II 2011

Bandung Marching Band Championship (BMBC) II 2011 has been successfully held on October 14 to 15, 2011 in Bandung, West Java. One of success parameters can be seen in the number of bands participated in the event. The participant bands not only came from Bandung and surroundings, but also from outside Java.





 This success was such a repetition of last year’s success of the organizing committee in holding the same event. This certainly brings optimism that the BMBC as one of GPMB series will be held again in the next year with a better quality of implementation.

The presence of sponsors (read: marching band instrument suppliers) had a big impact in the quality of an event. As with other large events, sponsors involved in the BMBC II were PT Citra Intirama, Bahanna Distributors, and Wijaya Music. They were featuring their flagship products.

A different nuance appeared because of the presence of Ardhika Sarana Musik that carried the ASM marching percussion brand as one of the supporting sponsors. Related to this Ardhika Sarana Musik management gave high appreciation to the committee of BMBC that enabled this synergy occurred. Such synergy is expected to be able to continue in the future.

Sukabumi Marching Band Competition 2011

Sukabumi Marching Band Competition (SMBC), a marching band annual event to celebrate the anniversary of Sukabumi District was successfully held in Palabuhan Ratu, a beautiful town on the south coast of Java, on October 6, 2011. The one day event featured school marching bands derive from Sukabumi District and surrounding.  

The event was held on the collaboration of local government, Jeepsi Sukabumi 4x4 Community, STISIP Widyapuri Mandiri, Scout Movement, and Ardhika Sarana Musik (ASM). It was the first time for the event organizer to take the marching band supplier as a sponsor. And ASM was really grateful for being partner of the event. 

Other factor made this event more credible. That was the jury. All the juries came from Jakarta and among them was one with international certificate.





 
That day became a very bustling and festive day since the event was held outdoor. Crowd of enthusiastic spectators really enjoyed the moment especially when their favorite bands performed.
