November 29th - First Western Brass Rehearsal
7:30pm - FYCB Band Hall
Western Brass is an exciting new brass band that was recently launched in Melbourne's western suburbs. Following the successful launch, our regular rehearsals will be at 7:30 on Tuesday nights (starting from 29 Nov).
Our aim is to provide an opportunity for people of all cultural backgrounds and various musical experience to participate in a quality music-making organisation, and engage in regular music making activities in the Western suburbs. This brand new band gives the players that graduate from the Youth Band the opportunity to further develop their musical skills in a more advanced ensemble and also provides the opportunity for people of all ages to kick start and/or reinvigorate their music making ambitions in a fun and friendly environment.
As the band grows and develops, more and more opportunities for public performance will be provided and if desired the possibility of competitions will also be incorporated into the activities of Western Brass. Regular performances are planned for the western region and will include many local festivals and events including the Christmas Carols Concert in Yarraville Gardens on Saturday 17 Decemeber.
Come along on Tuesday 29th and be part of this exciting new venture. For more information and to register your interest please email contact@fycb.com.au or call Brenton Burley on 0412 231 929
