And so the line has been drawn has it ???
Accepted!
Woodwind Players aren't going to let us be outnumbered by brass are we now?
Let's see how many Woodwind players we can get to match the brass section!

NEW YEAR, NEW BAND
Most musicians have finished the great Christmas concert marathon and you're probably in a lull before the holidays start. Take advantage of this (relatively) quiet time and get planning your 2026 new year's resolution.
Start by putting 15th February in your diary – we're holding our annual open rehearsal. You should play to a reasonably high standard and be prepared to attend future rehearsals on Sunday mornings. We're especially keen to hear from brass and percussion players as we don't want the woodwind to get the upper hand! (And a cheeky oboe wouldn't go amiss, either.)
Use our contact form to confirm you're coming, so we can have music ready for you on the day:

Makes me think of yesterday's budget!
Working hard to earn a living certainly didn't make us winners yesterday!

I was supposed to be practising studies and Band Christmas tunes but got distracted!
Haven't played it in quite some time.
Sometimes it nice to just pick up your instrument and just play!

Felt that it was a little overly critical on the sight-reading test and scales, but 124/150 isn't too bad for Grade 3 . It is a Merit after all.
