The Music School of the Municipality of Villeta has its roots in the historic Municipal Band, active since 1928. In 1990, under the direction of Maestro Hugo Garzón Suárez, the ensemble adopted a symphonic focus, modernized its repertoire, and achieved important accolades, including first-place wins in departmental contests and notable national performances. On June 23, 1993, through Municipal Agreement No. 03, the Music School was officially established, strengthening local artistic education. In 2020, the Villeta Children’s Symphonic Band was born with the vision of bringing together a group of 100% local children. Despite starting during lockdown, the band solidified its artistic development with the support of Mayor Yosimar Reyes Acevedo and the Municipal Institute for Tourism, Culture, Recreation, and Sports, led by Ricardo Cubillos Olarte. Thanks to the dedication of director Cristian Linares and a highly qualified teaching team, the band has excelled in national competitions in Guatavita, Andalucía, and Viterbo, among others. Today, the project has evolved into the Villeta Youth Symphonic Band, facing new challenges and with a national outlook, proudly representing Villeta on Colombia’s most important stages.
