Carlton Brass (Nottingham) - Vacancies

[rutty]

Carlton Brass now have a much healthier player base after some very welcome acquisitions recently. However, we are still in need of a couple of players in the following positions:

Percussion - tuned or kit.
Cornet - front or back

Next year's regional piece is the percussion-tastic Pentacle by Graham Cole and so we're keen to find talented tub-thumpers in our area.

We're currently in the first section and after a great result this year we're well-placed in the league table for next. We're a friendly bunch and can usually give lifts to players from any part of Nottingham and the surrounding area if needs be.

It seems that our luck is continuing with player recruitment thanks to both of Nottingham's excellent universities. We have now acquired an excellent percussionist plus a couple of trainee stick bashers. In addition to the new noise-makers we have also found a new cornet player.

We do have a longer-term requirement for second trombone, so we would be pleased to hear from any local 'boners looking for a quality band.

We could also do with an additional back-row cornet.

Nearly there!

Our ranks are filling up very nicely now and the band is looking to push on into 2011 with strong performances at both Butlins and the Area in Bedworth.

The only position now available is that of percussion. We need someone that likes hitting things with sticks, preferably at the right time.

If you're a drummer or tuned percussionist and would like to play with one of the finest bands in Nottinghamshire then please get in touch with our chairman John Bailey at info@carltonbrass.co.uk or (0115) 9117556

Hello again!

2011 sees Carlton Brass in good form and after a strong performance at Butlins need one or two more players to complete our line-up.

Stan Lippeatt will be taking us at the Midlands Regional First Section contest and we're going there to win. The band is currently full of confidence and enjoying playing under our new Musical Director.

The only positions available are for Percussionists, especially kit. If you live near Nottingham then we need you pounding our skins (or something like that).

Please get in touch with our chairman John Bailey at info@carltonbrass.co.uk or (0115) 9117556

Thanks

Hello there. It's me again.

Our esteemed Bass Trom is heading off for pastures new (Australia) and is going to have some slight trouble making it to band on Mondays and Thursdays. So, we need a new one. Thanks for all the low notes Dave - you'll be sorely missed!

We are also interested in hearing from students in Nottingham wanting to play for a band. We are a strong first section band with well-attended rehearsals. Anyone in the area is welcome to come to our bandroom in Netherfield for a blow.

Please get in touch with our chairman John Bailey at info@carltonbrass.co.uk or (0115) 9117556
