Welsh Champion Cory is to host its inaugural Solo & Ensemble Competition.
It will take place on Sunday, October 20th at the West Monmouth School in Pontypool in Torfaen in South Wales.
All ages and abilities
It aims to offer a return to what was once a thriving solo contest circuit in Wales, with the event set to comprise a wide range of sections for all ages and abilities, as well as different musical genres — from slow melody and air-varie to small ensemble categories.
Accompanists will also be available to book if performers cannot come with their own. Prizes will be on offer thanks to links to sponsors, with further details being made available when further details are released.
Get in touch
The band wishes to ensure the event is a success and would like to hear from potential entrants who are interested in taking part.
Great day
A spokesperson for the band said: "We wish to help revitalise an important element of community brass banding.
It's going to be a great day with further details to be released in due course. Please let us know if you or your band from anywhere in the UK would be interested in coming along and making it a success."
