Final Preparations for Torquay
With our trip to Torquay looming, we have two final rehearsals this week. Anyone is welcome to come and listen to the band as Tom puts us through our final paces on the test piece.
We are returning to Torquay to compete back in the Second section following our victory and promotion last year. We are entering the contest full of confidence and enthusiasm with our new MD, Tom Griffin, at the helm. The test piece which has been selected is "Rhapsody in Brass" by Dean Goffin, and old school piece of music which will serve as a decent test for all bands competing. There are technical challenges for all sections throughout the band, so everyone is having put in the extra hours of home practice to make sure we're "contest ready" to take to the stage.
Rehearsals this week
- Tuesday 7th March (8pm - 10pm) - Bandroom, Severalls Park Avenue in Crewkerne
- Wednesday 8th March (8pm - 10pm) - Crewkerne Day Centre, by Waitrose
