Group details

In this group members will learn all about what it really takes to make music as part of a group as well as having the opportunity to develop their skills further and can often be found working on and ultimately performing brilliant arrangements of music from film, TV and musical theatre. If you play a brass or woodwind instrument or are a drum kit player or percussionist then Training Band is for you.

*Please note that Training Band members are expected to be receiving a weekly individual or small group instrumental lesson on their instrument.
