LANE COVE CONCERT BAND tuba needed for East Coast Champs

Postby lizirwin on Fri Mar 21, 2008 10:48 am

Hi there,

We are in desperate need for some lower brass especially a tuba for the East Coast Champs. Is anyone willing to be a permit for us and come to a few rehearsals before the comp? Or even if you are not playing in it already, but would like to come up with us?

We also really need some percussionists if anyone is interested, and possibly another alto sax player.

Cheers
Liz

Wow... you could have been writing about our band!!!! It seems that the tuba / low brass players seem to have gone to ground lately!

Makes it hard to make commitments to entering championships when you can't be certain of instrumentation from one week/month to the next!

Maybe we need to convince all those kids who currently play clari / flute etc. in the schools of the joys of playing low brass!

Just a thought......
One of these days I'll get the hang of these things.....

any percussion would be good, we only have two percussionists and they are both still learning. We could do with help on tuned percussion, kit, anything....

that'd be great if you would be willing to do that. Could you come along to some rehearsals prior to EastCoast? We rehearse 7.30-9.30 Thursday nights in Lane Cove...

Would you be interested in playing with us? We would love to have you, at least for the East Coasts. Is Sutherland definately going? We would love to permit a tuba player!!!!
