. A WIND BAND FOR KEEN PERFORMERS - NOW RECRUITING!
Our band was formed in September 2013, with the aim of teaching adults with little or no previous musical experience, to play wind instruments.
Since then we have worked hard to improve our musical ability and we are now playing at approximately Grade 3 level.
Our continued development is due to dedicated practising and plenty of performance opportunities. Last year we played at 11 events, in and around Bristol. Currently our band comprises of flutes, clarinets, alto/ tenor and baritone saxes, euphonium, trombones, trumpets, bass guitar and drums, which means we have a well balanced sound but we are always happy to welcome new players,
especially FLUTES!
What we do
We meet every Wednesday evening in the YouFoundation, Page Road, Staple Hill, Bristol, BS16 4NE at 7.30, under the baton of OUR NEW Musical Director, ANDY LOVERIDGE.
We play a variety of music that suits our abilities and taste, such as:- 'Summer Nights', 'Sweet Caroline', 'All About That Bass' and 'Peter Gunn'. (see 'Our Music' for our full repertoire)
We are run by a committee of members, who actively seek out local events and venues at which the band can play and hence share our music with the wider community. If you'd like to book us for an event, please go to our 'enquiries' page.
