The National Association of Brass Band Conductors workshop that was to be held in Cardiff next week has been cancelled.

Brian C. Buckley told 4BR: "Due to circumstances beyond our control, the 2008 Regional Test Piece Workshop scheduled to be held at Cardiff on Sunday 20 January 2008, has been cancelled.

Apologies

Please accept our apologies for the disappointment and inconvenience caused to Conductors and players who were looking forward to attending this successful annual event. This cancellation will not affect the event planned for 2009."
