Welcome to Kovanda's Czech Band Home Page!
We are a traditional Czech Brass Band featuring Euphoniums and an Eb Clarinet! And, of course, trumpets, Bb Clarinets, trombone, percussion and tuba. We are happy to present for your enjoyment the Old World tradition of the large Czech Brass Band.
Visit our page on Facebook. See us on YouTube at Eddie Kosar's channel. You can also search YouTube for us or for Christiana or for Robert Ermis.
