Yorkshire Youth Band 2021
The Yorkshire Youth Brass Band will start the New Year with an exciting 'virtual' one day course to be held on Sunday 17th January. In addition to full band playing, masterclasses and sectional rehearsals, there will also be a special 'chill-out' room to enjoy a relaxing break.
Thanks to the support of the Geneva Group, the players will be able to benefit from the expertise of Richard Marshall and Connor Lennon (cornets); Siobhan Bates (flugel and horns); Dan Thomas (euphoniums and baritones); Brett Baker (trombones); Matt Routley (tubas) and Gareth Hand (percussion).
Black Dyke Director of Music Prof Nicholas Childs stated, "We are looking forward to meeting up again; there have been so many challenges in 2020 to overcome so everyone at the Yorkshire Youth Band is determined to start 2021 with optimism and excellence.
“We have a great team to inspire young players, some brilliant music to perform such as Peter Graham's 'Strange New Worlds' and 'Liberty Bell' and we will be using technology to add that extra bit of help too, with players sent their music by pdf e-mail and a guide track recording. We hope this is the start of way back to meeting up again person when it is safe and appropriate to do so. If you want to be part of that journey get in touch and enjoy the experience with us!"
