The Wedding

The Admiral's Own Big Band is comprised of musicians from the Royal Australian Navy's Sydney and Melbourne full-time band corp. 

As the name suggests, our first feature album "Compositions"  features original compositions by members of the Royal Australian Navy Band. 

This is the first time the Royal Australian Navy Band has produced an album of purely original music showcasing the capability of our big band. We are very pleased with the result and hope you enjoy listening and sharing our music.
