Trombones in partnership with Dyke

The British Trombone Society is pleased to announce a partnership with the Black Dyke Band Brass Arts Festival on 31st May 2009.

 

Within the Festival the BTS will hold a massed blow, composer’ collective and workshop and an opportunity to visit trade stands.

 

Registration takes place at 10.30am at the Albert Room in Leeds Town Hall, in the centre of Leeds. A warm up will take place at 10.45 lead by Brett Baker, Chairman of the BTS, and then at 11am Bob Hughes, President of the BTS, will rehearse the ensemble in two pieces to be played in the afternoon concert with Black Dyke Band at 3pm.

 

At 12.45 trombonists will have an opportunity to listen to a composers’ collective involving the playing of new trombone works, including pieces that were composed especially for the 2008 BTS composers’ competition, as well as guest soloists performing new pieces for trombone. The Black Dyke trombone Quartet will also perform.

 

There will then be a further opportunity for a rehearsal of the trombone choir before the concert at 3pm.

 

The concert is free of charge to any BTS members as is the workshop in the morning.
