The Lakeshore Concert Band was founded by Morley Calvert in 1967, and first performed at Expo '67, the Montreal World's Fair. It began as an adult education course at Lindsay Place High School in Pointe Claire, but quickly outgrew those roots and evolved into an independent community band. In the succeeding 30 years, the band has been based in the West Island of Montreal, and today calls Dorval its home.
