The bad weather in the North of England did its best to disrupt the recent Residential Course of the Cornwall Youth Brass Band, which was held in Truro just after Christmas.

Late arrivals

Guest conductor Garry Cutt was snowed in and had to postpone his arrival until late on the second day of the four day course.

Meanwhile, despite delays to her flights from Italy, guest soloist, trombonist Lisa Sarasini, managed to arrive in time to join Garry and the 62 young musicians.
