Thanks, I would love to come along to a practice at some point in the next few weeks maybe. Is it OK if I bring my friend along, who also plays cornet? :)

Thanks, that map is a very good idea! ...although it only shows brass bands, which isn't much help in my quest for jazz/swing etc. :)

Ah yes, I've been meaning to come along to a Llwydcoed practice at some point! I know one of your cornet players - Brian Milligan! :)

Hello,

I am a cornet/trumpet player and am wondering if anyone can tell me of bands that exist in or near Cardiff?

I am slightly looking for Brass Bands (although I think I am probably aware of...

Does anyone have any idea where I can get a screw for a 3rd Valve trigger on a cornet?

Hehe :biggrin:


p.s. glad you agree :)

I generally don't buy cds because I don't see the point when I can download music for less money. I don't really appreciate the physical value of a cd.

I do have a soft spot for vinyl though -...

Thanks for all of the opinions - they've been helpful :)

I've been thinking about it all weekend and have kept on changing my mind. However, I'm definitely swaying towards doing the course now. I...

I know there are quite a few technical/computery people on here so I thought it might be worth asking for some advice on something that I'm having trouble deciding...

Well, the plans are coming together now - luckily, seeing as we go in exactly a weeks time from now!

We're now going to: Paris, Geneva (briefly), Brig to Chur on the glacier express, Salzburg...

I am off on holiday with friends in just under two weeks. How exciting! :D

I was wondering whether people have any suggestions of places we should try to include in our trip or things we should...
