2009 North of England Brass Band Championships - 4th Section - 5th Place

The Band were placed 5th in the North of England Area Contest in Darlington today which is probably a fair result, although as always in contesting, it was disappointing that what we thought were worse Bands get placed above us. The piece, The Talisman by Frank Hughes, is generally said to be above Section 4 standard and many Bands across the country have struggled with the piece. Many thanks once again goes to Vince for all of his hard work during the last couple of months.
