Louise Renshaw, musical
director of Macclesfield Youth Brass Band, was named Teacher of the Year
in radio station Silk FM’s Local Hero awards last week. The awards
ceremony took place at Cheshire’s Shrigley Hall where local dignatories,
sponsors and guests celebrated the efforts of Local Heroes - people who
make an outstanding contribution to their community.
The award was made in
recognition of Louise’s commitment to the development of young players
and the value of her work, performed voluntarily, with all sections of
the band, now just two years old.
After acknowledging the
contribution of MYBB’s team of trustees towards her success, Louise told
Silk FM’s compère that the band would shortly be releasing its first CD.
“How about playing it on your station?” she suggested. “I’m sure your
listeners would enjoy brass band music.” |
