Long and fruitful partnership

For York, the Managing Director of Schreiber & Keilwerth, Dr. Armin Eckert, told 4BR: "We are delighted about the co-operation with the Cory Band. World class musicians like David Childs and Owen Farr from the Cory Band have been a part of the successful York story from the first day. We are looking forward to a long and fruitful partnership. We congratulate Cory on being the current number one on the Brass
Band World Ranking and we wish them a successful 125th Anniversary Year."
