The Camborne Band recently hosted brass workshops that were run by Robb Tooley (Trombone) and Pete Turnbull (Trumpet) of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, who conveyed excellent musical knowledge.The sessions encompassed good breathing techniques, tonguing and the playing of blues intervals in rounds to accommodate the different levels of playing ability from attendees. The second session, using specially arranged brass music for ensemble, allowed individual players to demonstrate their listening skills and play without need of a conductor.
The next exciting event in this collaboration is a joint concert with the BSO Brass Section on Thursday 25th April at The Tolmen Centre in Constantine.
