Hi, McElmurry – the Moravian church in South Africa also maintains a tradition of wind bands.
The early Moravian missionaries were permitted to minister only to “Hottentots” (nowadays we call them Khoikhoi or Coloured people), not to any white congregations. Some of these missionaries married women from their own congregations, and have left descendants.
Wherever you find a Moravian church in South Africa, you will find a band there.
Regards,
Mike
