Holy and Glory ! The musical band of 1st Simpang Renggam Company was form at year 2003. From the beginning until today, it was many changing occurs in this band. From a flute band became a small brass band, although not a full in brass wind instrument, it is a miracle for a band which just form in few years and develop by own power.
In these few years, our band has been involved in number of the events. On year 2003, our band was performed as a guest in the band competition of Pesta Malacca 2003 “Dare to be different!” and it was the first time we took part in Pesta, although just a normal band formation performance, but we obtain a lot of unforgettable experience from it. In the year 2004, the 1st officially band competition is come to us which is “Johor State School Band Competition”. Although we got 5th place out of 5 teams but we do not felt disappointed for it because throughout each competition we will left a lot of sweet (fun), bitter (scored by leader), sour (can’t obtain champion), spicy (practice under the sun) memory in our mind, it not just a simple band competition but is a valuable challenge to ourselves.
On the other hand, our band also frequently invite by public parties for certain meaningful festivals such like school sport day, National day, Mid-autumn Festival and others but the most important is after our band performance we will always received the cheerful from the audience and it is one of the motivation for us to keep moving forward.
Nowadays , 1st Simpang Rengam Company Band have around 40 band members and lead by our Sgt Ng Tzyy Yng, Cpl Koh Yan Horng, Cpl Khor Hai Sheng, Lcpl Lim Chee Yap and Lcpl Low Jia Chai. God bless that we can upgrade our band to a complete brass band and able to organize our own concert in the future year!
