I have been playing the cornet for almost ten years and have loved every minute of it! I joined the North East Concert Band in 2009 and have thoroughly enjoyed the experience so far. I am looking forward to the coming years as a member of the band, which I am sure will be enjoyable and lots of fun. The band made me feel very welcome when joining and everyone is very supportive and friendly. I enjoy playing for a range of different events throughout the year but my favourite performances are playing to raise money for Help The Heroes and playing for Remembrance Services, as they are important to so many people and are both good causes. As well as the North East Concert band I am also a member of The Band and Bugles of Durham Army Cadet Force.Favourite Piece - Bugler?s Holiday / Les MiserableMost disliked Piece ?
