For 60 years, Cosmopolitan Music Society (Cosmo) has been a cornerstone of musical education and performance in the Edmonton Community from their home in the heart of Old Strathcona. Established in 1962 as the Cosmopolitan Club Band, the society pioneered one of Western Canada’s first “beginner” band programs, meeting in community halls and school gyms long before band programs were made available across Alberta.
Today, Cosmo has grown to include 9 ensembles, encompassing a diverse array of musical instruments, genres, and skill levels
