No Score or Music supplied

Apparently the MD has lost his score so will be conducting the band without it... hmmm... I guess it happens to the best of us eh!!

Very mellow sound to the band - who make an excellent start.

Exciting 3rd cornet... wonderful stuff. You deserve to be 2nd cornet at least!!

From where I am sat, you sound very well balanced, and are producing a lovely sonorous sound.

Nice Solo Cornet - well played. Faster movement not always together... but the balance is always prevalent. Nice flugel in the fast 3/4 section (I think it's 3/4 - no score). Well controlled through the rall's.... with solo doing very well again in short solo parts.

Bass starts to get raspy during the ascent!! Shame.... don't lose the balance you have maintained throughout the piece so far.

Accel... very aggressive playing, capturing the essence of the piece... nice Bass Trom... you continue to play well through this section... Ct tremolo not always balanced...

Well done to Lympstone... a performance worthy of the top four we feel.
