Silk Brass (AstraZeneca) are back on line with the launch of their brand new look website at www.silkbrass.com

New look

Andy Ingleby, Silk’s Principal Euphonium player, volunteered to become the Band’s new “webmaster” and has produced their new look that they say is interesting and informative as well as very stylish and professional.

Silk’s website had needed updating for some time and although I’d never attempted anything like this before I thought that it would be a great challengeAndy Ingleby

Worthwhile

Commenting on the website, Andy told 4BR: "Silk’s website had needed updating for some time and although I’d never attempted anything like this before I thought that it would be a great challenge. I’ve had some great comments from those who have seen it so far, so all the hard work has been worthwhile."

Expanding

Silk are now considering expanding the websites server space so that Andy can add some more features, and he’ll also be making sure that regular updates are posted so that Silk Brass supporters can keep up to date with what the Band is up to.

Barry Worth, Silk’s Chairman added:"We’re really proud of what Andy’s done, the website is fantastic and it gives the Band a great electronic presence."
