It will run from 10.00am – 4.00pm and will feature the playing talents of newly crowned Grand Shield champions Milnrow.

Exciting

NABBC Chairman Andrew White told 4BR: "The morning sessions will provide unique sectional rehearsals for brass instrumentalists as well as both new and established musical directors.

The afternoon sessions will give MDs the opportunity to rehearse a composite band composed of Milnrow and those attending the morning sectional rehearsals. The programme will also include exciting new items from composer Paul Lovatt-Cooper."

Cost

The cost for the full day is £25 for non-members, but it is free for existing NABBC members. It is £20 per person if 8 or more instrumentalists come from the same band.

This is a unique opportunity to rehearse and perform with a top flight championship winning band in Milnrow, enjoy sectional rehearsals, be directed by the inspirational Richard Evans and play some great music from Paul Lovatt-CooperAndrew White
