Verwood
Concert Brass recently competed at the
West of England Championships in
Torquay. This was their first contest in
the Second Section following promotion.
Verwood came an amazing second place
which not only means they will once
again represent the region at the
National Brass band Championships in
Harrogate later in the year but also
means that the band will be promoted to
the First Section in 2010.
One result of Verwood’s meteoric rise
through the sections is an influx of
excellent brass players from further
afield who wish to join the band and
share the success. Verwood are now in
the happy position of having sufficient
players to form two main bands in
addition to its long standing Training
Band.
On Wednesday 3rd June Verwood’s new band
(‘Verwood B’), will have its first
rehearsal at the Band Hall in Moorlands
Road under the baton of David Johnson.
‘Verwood B’ will perform at concerts and
compete against other bands in the
Fourth Section. Anyone interested in
playing with the bands or conductors who
would like to audition for the role of
‘Verwood B Band’ MD should contact band
chairman Paul Coward on 01202 828073 or
