The Music Society, with its centenary tradition is a proud of inhabitant of Stari Grad, and the only such society on the island of Hvar – the Stari Grad Brass Band – this year celebrates its 135th anniversary of continuous musical activity.

This Society has had many guest performances outside Croatian borders (Rotterdam, Praha, München, Beč, Velek Opatovice, Letovice and Boskovice).
The Stari Grad Brass Band takes part in all state, folk and church holiday celebrations. Many generations of Stari Grad inhabitants have expressed their love for music in the so called Mužika (Town Music Stari Grad) whilst some of them began their professional careers right there. Today’s bandmaster, Luki Gamulin also grew up in Mužika.
