We were formed from a group of players who were previously with the
Wolverhampton Community Concert Band which used to rehearse at Highfields
School in Wolverhampton under the baton of David Gray.
That band
ceased to exist following the withdrawal of funding by the Adult Education
Service in September 1992.
We then moved our rehearsal venue to
Darlington Street Methodist Church hall and we later acquired a new musical
director, Derek Craft.
We stayed at Darlington Street until November 1999 when we re-located to The
Newhampton Centre in Wolverhampton
We now practice on
Thursday nights at 1930 at the YWCA, Claverley Drive, Warstones. We
welcomed a new conductor in January 05, Charles Brown. Charles stayed with
us for a year and did a wonderful job but sadly had to leave us due to other
commitments.
Since early 2006 we have had the pleasure of
welcoming Mr Stuart Mallen to conduct the band who has continued Charles
good work and is equally doing a great job!. |
