A friendly, local concert band.
We are open to all ages and abilities, although a reasonable standard of playing would be needed. The band has traditional concert band instrumentation – a woodwind section currently consisting of flutes, Bb clarinets, bass clarinet and saxophones – alto, tenor and baritone; and a brass section consisting of trumpets/cornets and baritone/euphonium.
We play a variety of pieces, from music specifically written for this combination of instruments by composers such as Vaughan Williams, Phillip Sparke and Holst, arrangements of popular music and film scores, traditional marches by composers such as Sousa, and also arrangements of music from the orchestral repertoire.
