Van Diemen's Band

Discover VDB in 2025

We invite you to discover a wonderful array of music with us in 2025. Our ever-popular Lunchbox Concerts are happening in Pataway/Burnie in May-June, and we're co-presenting Katie Yap's acclaimed Multitudes project in June.

For those who can't make it to a live performance (or want to re-live a show), we have a delectable range of digital broadcasts available in our "Watch & Listen" section.

I look forward to welcoming you to a performance soon.

2025 Season

New single available now!

Just released - the first single from our new album BOHEMIA - Pachelbel’s ultra-famous Canon and Gigue.

Many, many people have played and loved this piece over the years, but our take is a light, buoyant rhapsody, before a very cheeky Gigue. Available now on all the usual streaming services.

Full album available Friday 20 June.

New single: Pachelbel Canon & Gigue

"This is not recreating an imagined past. It’s creating music now ... add performances of the highest calibre and an infectiously enthusiastic stage presence, and you have an ensemble that is a welcome addition to the baroque and beyond conversation."

— Sydney Morning Herald

"I'd crawl over broken glass to attend a Van Diemen's Band concert! "

— Audience member

"We are so lucky to have such talented, generous and warm musicians in Tasmania. Every time I see you perform there is such joy and happiness that you radiate to all in the audience."
