This weekend, Lydney Town Band was one of sixteen bands competing in the Third Section of the West of England Brass Band Association Regional Finals. We performed 'Chorale and Toccata' by Stephen Bulla, under adjudication by Christopher Bond and Tom Hutchinson. Following months of preparation, the Band bolstered by the recent addition of Ian Ford and Herbie in the cornet section and Ben Hannaford-Waddington on percussion took to the stage in the Riviera International Centre in Torquay.
The adjudicators complimented the band as giving an admirable performance which was well managed by the Musical Director (Tom Dunne) and ultimately placed the Band eighth overall. The contest also featured the public debut of the Band's new jackets and marked Herbie's first contest and Dave Wintle's 64th! Pictured are our solo cornet team (Kerry, Ian, Mark and Kay) with Mark (euphonium). Comments are closed.
