Kintyre Schools Junior Wind Band

Postby Ileach B » Sun Apr 14, 2013 9:37 pm

Kintyre Schools Junior Windband travelling to Birmingham on Friday to play in the National Concert Band Festival which they qualified with Gold in Paisley last year.

After fundraising last year and generous contributions the band travelled this weekend to Birmingham to compete, I think roughly 16 of them managed which is a bit less than the usual band due to comitments with Paul Stone stepping in for Katy Cameron.

The Junior Wind Band which consists of a mixture of wind and brass instruments and ages from primary to mid grammar compete on Saturday and gained an impressive gold.

I'm hoping I've attached Fright Night as this is a fantastic piece from a small hard working school band.

They played brilliantly! It must have been very daunting for them considering all the other bands consisted of 40 plus members :<> The other band in their section was one of four in that school. :<>

Well done to the wee band !

And well done to Katy Cameron and Paul Stone for leading them. Also to Fiona McDonald for taking over the organising of the trip, thank you!

We were proud of you before but are even more so now :D
