Reunion Concert
Sun Sept 19th 2010 - 7pm - Corby Business Academy
Are you a former Youth Brass 2000 player? The band is holding a Reunion Concert on Sept 19th this year, and would love to see you there! Do you still play? Hopefully you do, in which case you are cordially invited to join the band at the concert, either as a player or even a soloist! Even if you no longer play, we would still love to see you again.
The plan is that rehearsals will be held during the day, in preparation for the concert in the evening. Even if you can't join us for the concert, you are welcome to visit the rehearsal, and perhaps have a "blow" with the band during the day, or simply to sit in as an audience member. At the evening concert, the plan is that the current band will play the 1st half, but the second half will be for former band members to join with the band, either in special band numbers that were rehearsed during the day, or for solos for former players. The evening will end with a massed band performance. This will be rehearsed at around 4pm - 5.30pm.
Tickets will be available on the door, at £5 each.
If you need more details, give our Band Chairman, Don Collins, a call on 07860 525352 - he would love to hear from you, and will be able to have a chat with you about the day, and the concert programme.
Alternatively, drop us an email at reunion@youthbrass2000.com and we will get back to you just as soon as we can. If you could include your phone number in the email, that will help us get back to you more quickly.
