These are video recordings of the band performing in Manchester. The marching routine was Nick's 'Oh! What A Lovely War' music for the TYMBA rules competition which was on the Sunday. The whole band (bar a couple of older members) took part in this routine. Though we came 3rd of 4 bands in this competition, we did win The 'General Musical Effect' award which isn't too bad considering it was the first competition for many of the members.

The rest of the music is from the concert competition the evening before. Only 13 of our members played in this competition and we were awarded a Gold Award with Distiction. The pieces performed were: Also Sprach Zarathustra (Theme from 2001), William Tell (an extract from the famous overture), Band Of Brothers (Theme from the Mini-series), Somewhere Out There (From the film 'An American Tail'), and Funny Cellophane (an arrangement of music from the musical 'Chicago'). All music was arranged by our muscial director Nick Coope.

This is a video recording of a rehearsal session for an upcoming competition. There are just 12 of the older members playing here: Gareth, Helena, Michael and Vicky on cornet, Jessica and Becky on clarinet, James on flute, Simon on the Eb horn, Richard on the euphonium, Jeff on the Bb bass, Sue on the bell lyre and Natalie on the drum kit.
