Cornerstone Brass has announced the signing of Paul Dixon as their new solo baritone player ahead of the Yorkshire Regional Championships in Bradford in March.
First taste
A former professional footballer, it will be Paul’s first taste of contesting after a musical background in the Salvation Army where he was principal euphonium of the Territorial Youth Band, although both his brother and father are members of Grimethorpe Colliery Band.
