Fourth! Band Triumph at UniBrass
February 21, 2012
We are back from a fantastic week in Lancaster and are thrilled to have been awarded 4th place in the University Brass Band Championships - beating some good university bands (Cardiff and Southampton) along the way! Adjudicators Derek Broadbent and Paul Andrews were particularly complimentary about our hymn tune, In Perfect Peace and really enjoyed our entertaining programme, complete with 'eccentric' conductor.
Thanks to everyone for all your hard work in getting the pieces up to scratch - it really did pay off.
Welcome!
Hello! We're the University of York Brass Band.
We rehearse once a week (on Sunday evenings) in the Sir Jack Lyons Concert Hall on our beautiful campus.
We're a student run society and we have a very open, welcoming attitude. We don't hold auditions, and anyone is welcome to come along. We play a wide variety of music of all different standards of difficulty- so no matter how good you are there'll always be something you can play, but accomplished players won't get bored either!
We also have a reputation for being a very sociable society, and regularly get together outside of the band room.
Take a browse through our lovely website to see exactly what we get up to, and if you have any unanswered questions then please don't hesistate to contact us and a member of our committee will get back to you as soon as possible.
