Cochrane Music Society has started rehearsals and we are having a terrific time!
BUT – due to the construction at Bow Valley High School we have decided to move to Cochrane High School for this year. Starting this week – September 17 and 18 – Band on the Bow, Riverside Jazz and Choral Waves will all rehearse at CHS. Same day/same time – different venue.
See you there!
Due to construction at Bow Valley High School, the start of the CMS 2025-2026 season will be:
September 10 – Band on the Bow and Riverside Jazz
September 11 – Choral Waves
We are eager to start rehearsals and look forward to seeing our ongoing members and lots of new people!

Sunday, Sept 7, the CCD2025 stage moves to Centennial Plaza, Main Street, during the Cochrane Class Car Club Show ‘N’ Shine, to combine great performances with their event. Come out to see the amazing cars and trucks and enjoy our program of Westwinds Summer Jazz, Cochrane Pipe Band, Six By Six, Mountain Mardi Gras Hot Jazz , Melodic Mix and Hippocratic Oath Jazz Band.
Imagine That YYC Face Painting will be on hand to add to the festivity.
Park on the south side of the tracks, walk through to Main Street, and see Wazin Îchinabi Ti raising their tipi at The Station Greenspace. Once it is up, it will hold a display of Indigenous art.
At the west end of Main Street, stop in at Wazin Ichinabi Ti – House of Oneness – to browse their artisan sale open from 11am to 3pm and take home a special piece of art.
