The members of Test Valley Brass gathered recently enjoyed a day of virtuoso help from Steven Mead.

Fun packed

Steve led a fun packed educational day, working on the basics through the techniques for improving breathing, sound, posture, stamina and tonal quality – all done with a great sense of fun and enjoyment.

Lots of great music was tackled, and everyone from the youngest to the oldest participant came away with a smile on their face – despite a few sore lips!

We have had a wonderful day and our members have gone away buzzing with excitement and with renewed enthusiasmPeter Heslop
