North West Area Champion Foden's will head across Offa's Dyke later this month to hold a training day with Beulah Brass in Abergele.

The event on Saturday 28th April will see stars from the band work with delegates in full band and sectional rehearsals, give invaluable one to one tips and advice and undertake a tutor's concert and workshop concert to round the day off.

Open day

The day is open to brass players only with the charge for the day at £10 (adults), £5 (under 16s) and £20 (family rate)

Beulah Band spokesperson Mary Wallace told 4BR: "We are thrilled to once again welcome the Foden's stars to our training day following the success of a previous visit by them a couple of years ago. It promises to be a fantastic event and one that will have huge benefits for everyone that attends."
