"Ben's Basics" by Ben van Dijk. However, this does assume that you can read bass clef and know the slide positions.

Hi Mark,

Bear in mind that there is no such thing as "the best" trombone, only the trombone which is best for you - which may well be different to what is best for me, or for Dave, or for Bayerd,...

Hi Mark,

Must confess I've never heard of Thomann.

I'd keep hold of the Yamaha for the time being, or else keep an eye out for 2nd hand Bach, Yamaha, Conn, Holton etc.

Farnworth & Walkden played "Variations on Laudate Dominum" by Edward Gregson (the revised version)

Eagley played "Glorifico Aeturnum" by Dean Jones

Both in the 3rd section, but I don't know...

In the past, they have always given out the results for the 4th, 3rd and Youth sections after the 3rd section, and the 2nd and Championship results after the Championship section.

Chris Wormold is adjudicating the 2nd section and (I think) the Championship section.

Flixton Band will be there, also in the 2nd section.

I saw Alan Hobbins at Delph. He was playing front row cornet with Hepworth.

I'm fairly sure that Downland Suite was the 1st section Area test piece for 2010. If that is the case, then it's unlikely to be used again so soon.

Ray Premru for bass trombone.

Regent Hall and Coventry City also had sousaphones, I believe as late as the 1970's.
