Blow Your Own Trumpet With Ottery St Mary Silver Band Next Event An open invitation to all, come along to the Ottery St Mary Silver Band ”Fun Play Coffee Morning” at the Institute on the Saturday 21st April 2012. Just drop in at any time during the morning from 10.00am to 12.30pm. It doesn’t matter if you have never played before, you will still be welcome to “have a blow”. You may just surprise yourself and find you have a natural talent and join our Brass Class to learn more. Alternatively you could be a “semi retired” player, having previously played with another band and just waiting for the right moment to pick up and start again. There will be a selection of instruments available for you to try out, big and small. Not to worry if it is not for you, just come along anyway and listen to the band, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit while you learn a little more about the town band, you will receive a warm welcome and the main band will be playing some of the music being prepared for the Spring Concert on Sunday the 6th of May.Ottery St Mary Band has some 20 playing members in the main band with a similar number in Brass Class. We are a friendly bunch, with members from all age groups and play for our own enjoyment and enjoy entertaining people at a host of local events throughout the year. Some play with more than one band to help ensure that the great brass tradition continues in this area.If you are interested but cannot make the 21st all is not lost. Brass Class meet every Monday between 7.30pm and 8.30pm, in the band room beneath the town library. The main band rehearses every Thursday in the Feoffee Room behind the Institute between 7.30pm and 21.30pm.
