Player Profile:-
Becci started her Brass Banding career by playing the tenor horn at the age of 7 .  She joined the beginners group at South East Cheshire Band and subsequently joined the youth band. She then moved from tenor horn to baritone for a couple of months and played trombone for a few years. When Becci had her brace fitted she found the trombone too restricting, so she returned to her original prowess, the tenor horn. When South East Cheshire Band disbanded in 2006, she moved with many of the bands' players to form the Macclesfield Youth Brass Band, who then went on to recorded a CD. Shortly after this she was offered the chance to play with Silk Brass and has developed into a very welcomed and valued member of the team.
Becci also has other strings to her bow, and plays at the small brass group at Fallibroome High School as well as a the wind band. She is currently studying at Fallibroome High School where she will be taking her GCSEs' this year. Next year her intention is to continue to study Biology, Maths, Geography and English Literature at Fallibroomes' sixth Form. Hopefully, she says, she will go to university in the future, and train to be a primary school teacher.
