Twice as much music at Verwood

Verwood Concert Brass aim for more success with new band.

Verwood
 

Following their fine performance at the West of England Regional Championships recently, Verwood Concert Brass are now in the happy position of having sufficient players to form two main bands in addition to its long standing Training Band.

New band

On Wednesday 3rd June Verwood’s new band ('Verwood B'), will have its first rehearsal at the Band Hall in Moorlands Road under the baton of David Johnson.

'Verwood B' will perform at concerts and compete against other bands in the Fourth Section.
