Bruce Raymond departs K&N

Bruce Raymond departs K&N Spring Gully Brass.

K&N Spring Gully Brass
 

K&N Spring Gully Brass is sad to announce the resignation of Musical Director Bruce Raymond, effective 2nd May 2011. Since his appointment in December 1983, Bruce has lead the band to two Australian National Championship titles (1992 and 2002), numerous South Australian State and other championship wins, several CD recordings and many fine concerts, including collaboration with many world-leading musicians.

Outstanding Service

While saddened by Bruce's resignation, the band and Committee respects his right to choose the time and manner of his leaving after such a long period of outstanding service. Bruce's commitment, dedication, enthusiasm and unique style will be missed: K&N Spring Gully Brass extends its sincere thanks for all that he has given to the organisation, and wishes him well in his future endeavours.

Exciting Challenges

K&N Spring Gully Brass will be embarking on a new journey with some exciting challenges ahead. Further announcements regarding the position of Musical Director will be forthcoming shortly.
