The Sandwich Concert Band
Training Band
Less
experienced
players
perform
with
the
Training
band
which
encourages
and
develops
those
playing
at
approximately
Grades
1
or
2
upwards.
The
Band
works
on
more
straight
forward
arrangements
of
popular
classical,
film
and
pop
tunes
and
performs
both
on
their
own
and
with
the
Concert Band twice a year.
Although
we
don’t
tutor
players
on
their
specific
instruments,
several
of
the
experienced
musicians
from
the
Concert
Band
assist
in
rehearsals
and
performances
and
are
on
hand
to
offer
help
and
suggestions. We can also help you find a teacher if you don’t already have one.
The
environment
is
supportive
with
an
emphasis
on
learning
to
play
in
an
ensemble
and
developing
musicianship
skills.
Most
players
will
progress
to
a
stage
where
they
can
join
the
Concert
Band
and
continue to enjoy making music at a higher level.
Please
see
the
Events
page
for
details
of
forthcoming
concerts
featuring
the
Training
Band,
or,
if
you
are a player, please visit the
Recruitment
page for information about performing with us.
We look forward to seeing you!
