Blewbury Brass Band are running a series of enjoyable "step up to brass" music courses, at their rehearsal hall beside the Blewbury recreation ground. The course runs for 8 weeks and costs £50. The next course starts October 12th, playing each Wednesday evening from 6.30pm to 7.20pm. There is also the opportunity to stay on and play with the main band afterwards as playing improves.
The course is aimed both at youths and adults aged between 10 and 100 who can read music and play an instrument to something like grade 2, 3 or 4 standard. We provide good instruments and professional tuition, and all you need to provide is enthusiasm. Instruments include Cornet, Trumpet, Tenor Horn, Trombone, Baritone, Euphonium and Drums.
Perhaps you play in the recorder group or are learning the violin at school. Maybe you played a brass instrument at school (perhaps 20-30 years ago) and fancy starting again. Or just maybe, you have a teenager who wants to play drums in a rock band and you’d like a peaceful evening once a week. Either way, this could be just your cup of tea.
