Trumpet, Cornet and Flugelhorn Day
On Sunday 23rd April, trumpet and cornet players from over 20 schools gathered in Cedars Hall for the Trumpet, Cornet and Flugelhorn Day hosted by the Wells Brass Department.
Joining Wells tutors Mr Brown and Mr Jones were two outstanding soloists from the world-famous current European Champions, Cory Band, principal cornet Tom Hutchinson and principal flugelhorn Helen Williams.
The day included some energetic warmups, smaller ensemble playing, individual lessons for the lucky winners of the ‘Lotto Lesson’ competition, and a masterclass.
The day ended with an informal concert to family and friends, featuring performances by all of the participants and tutors, culminating in a massed ensemble performance by all 40 players!
Thanks to Prozone Music for providing a popular (and rather noisy!) trade stand.
