THE BIG BRASS BAND - SATURDAY MARCH 25TH 2017
Looking for something different to arrange we decided against a competition
of any sort and elected to attempt to recreate the sound of Harry Mortimer’s
“Men Of Brass” where he joined the bands of Fairey, Morris Motors and
Fodens together and called them his brass orchestra. It’s always great fun to
play massed bands and especially if we can gather together 90 players. Dave
Bishop Rowe our conductor will plan an interesting programme with music for
all abilities. Please come and support us and make this a successful day. There
is no charge to take part just the cost of getting yourself to our venue at
Cradley Heath Salvation Army Meredith St Cradley Heath B64 5EP. This is a
modern building with attached car parking and is well capable of taking a large
band. We are looking to meet at 2.30 to sort out seating and to have a run
through the programme followed by a chance to eat and socialise. The concert
would start at 7 p.m. and we hope to include a choir. There will be a charge of
£4 for tickets. Please encourage your friends and family to support us.
We need to know the number of players on each instrument so that we can
plan accordingly. There is a separate sheet attached on which you can enter
the necessary details. If you are replying as a group from your band then there
need only be one contact email address.
