Composer and conductor Andy Wareham has been appointed the Resident MD of Hyde Band ahead of their appearance at the forthcoming Wychavon Entertainment Contest.

Ambitious

Andy told 4BR: "I'm looking forward working with an ambitious, friendly and hardworking group and preparing their programme for the upcoming contest.

I'm delighted I'm able to use the skills I learned during my MMus Conducting Study with Dr Robert Childs at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.

With the band's busy concert season and contesting campaign coming up in 2020, I'm eager to get started on what I hope will be a very successful partnership."
