Woodwind, Brass and Percussion players at Grade 3 + Standard – SYCB
We would like to invite woodwind, brass or percussion (either kit or orchestral) players at Grade 3 + standard to this year’s Easter Wind Band Course.
You will need to apply early, because there are a limited number of places, which will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
The purpose of this course is to give you the opportunity to play alongside the Somerset Youth Concert Band which you can join as a member when you are Grade 5 standard. The SYCB has about 50 members so it is a fantastic opportunity to play in a large ensemble.
Rehearsal Monday 14th April 2025: 9.30am – 1.00pm – Willowdown Primary Academy, Kings Drive, Bridgwater, TA6 4FU
Rehearsal Wednesday 16th April 2025: 3.00pm – 5.00pm – Cedars Hall, The Liberty, Wells BA5 2ST
Concert Wednesday 16th April 2025: 7.00pm – 9.00pm – Cedars Hall, The Liberty, Wells BA5 2ST
If you would like to come along please complete the online application form by Monday 31st March.
