New Principal Cornet Player

Camborne Town Band would like to announce the appointment of Lee Wylde as their new principal cornet.

Lee initially joined the Camborne Town Band, which came sixth at the National Finals, on solo cornet last year after enjoying a successful time with the St Dennis Band. He takes over from Demelza Sturges who is eagerly expecting a new arrival of her own!

Musical Director Kevin Mackenzie said "We would like to thank Demelza for her outstanding contribution as principal cornet player over the past couple of years. She has been an important part of our successes and we look forward to seeing her again soon."

Kevin added: "When I heard that Lee was available to join us on front row last year, I acted quickly. His contribution to the cornet section was excellent. Since I knew a replacement was needed, Lee was offered the position which we are delighted he accepted." All of us at Camborne welcome Lee to the band.
