SOCIETA FILARMONICA LA VITTORIA MELLIEĦA - A.D. 1907
La Vittoria Band Club was enacted in the year 1906, when a group of friends from the Northern town of Malta, called Mellieħa, formed a club with the name La Vittoria (the Victory - named after the local patron of Mellieħa). In the following year (1907), the La Vittoria Band performed for the first time in Malta (at the Santwarju tal-Madonna in Mellieħa, under the direction of Carmelo Doneo (it’s first band master).
Officially the band was effectively inaugurated a few months after on the 7th of September 1907 with a traditional band march in the Mellieħa Parish Square.
Over the years, the La Vittoria Band Club evolved and nowadays, the Band Club has over 60 musicians forming part of the Band Club. The vision over the years changed, instead of looking at La Vittoria Band Club as a typical traditional music band club, La Vittoria is now an institution, where it offers a successful Music School, encourages Development of musicians of all ages, helps the Mellieħa community is music awareness and promotes the involvement of younger musicians in preparing them for a solid music career.
