Pennine Music will be heading to Torquay this weekend with a huge collection of brilliant music and a huge range of fantastic Wallace mutes in tow.

Face to face

This will be the first time the leading brass band music publishers have attended the West of England Regional Championships, and are looking forward to meeting many of their customers face to face.

Owner Gavin Somerset told 4BR: "We have a great number of customers who regularly purchase music from us in this region, but as yet we've never been able to get down to meet them with our trade stand. Now we are looking forward to putting faces to names."

Exciting new titles

He added: "With hundreds of music titles on display, including plenty of new releases, bands will be able to browse through the exciting new titles and pick up works that will be the perfect tonic following their hard graft preparing for the Regional Championships."

Gavin added that the trip will also offer customers the chance to get their hands on the brilliant Wallace mutes. He added: "They are fantastic — and if there is a specific mute you are after, please do get in touch beforehand so that they can ensure your needs are met."
