Silk Brass (AstraZeneca) are looking to appoint two new players to their ranks.
The first opening is for a front row cornet player to replace a member who is due to move away from the area with work. The second is a very exciting opportunity for a young percussionist to develop their talent with Silk's experienced percussion section.
Bob Goodwin, Silk's Bandmaster said “We are a dedicated and very friendly 1st section band, and I can honestly say you'll never be bored at Silk - our music is varied and at times demanding, and we are constantly looking for new challenges to take us forward - at the moment we are planning a European tour for 2009, and in recent months we have replaced or refurbished all of our instruments, released our second CD and recorded a session for BBC Radio 2.”
As well as hoping to attract new talent to apply for the cornet vacancy Silk are also aware that over recent years a number of local bands have folded and players have given up. Bob (The bands Bandmaster) stated- “for many players, banding has been in their blood and this would be a wonderful opportunity for some very talented individuals to come out of retirement and take up a fantastic hobby again”
Commenting on the percussion opportunity, Bob went on to say “we currently have three very talented and experienced percussionists who are keen to share their knowledge and assist a committed young player to develop further. At Silk we have a history of nurturing young percussion talent, with two of our previous members going on to study percussion in Southampton and London. We are looking for a percussionist who has some experience already and ideally has achieved grade 5 or is of an equivalent standard.”
Silk Brass are based at Marton on the A34 between Congleton and Alderley Edge. Members travel from many areas including Manchester, Whaley Bridge, Buxton, Stoke and Crewe, and so assistance with travel is a distinct possibility.
If you're interested in these opportunities, or you'd like to find out more about the band please contact Bob Goodwin on 07770 366511
