Welcome return to NYBBS
The Scottish Brass Band Association is delighted to announce that Richard Evans has accepted the position of Musical Director Emeritus of the National Youth Brass Bands of Scotland.
Richard will make a very welcome return at the 2015 Summer Courses in Dunblane's Queen Victoria School from 25th July to 1 August; guest conducting all three bands at their end of course concerts in Dunblane Cathedral.
Newly elected SBBA President, Carrie Boax, commented, ‘I am personally delighted and very excited that Richard will be back at NYBBS again next year. He is a very loved and well-respected member of the NYBBS family who all at SBBA believe still has got so much to offer the young brass and percussion players that come from all over Scotland, England and The Isle of Man to join us each year. With a strong conducting team and returning group of first class tutors, I am confident that our aim of providing our young musicians with a first class social and educational experience will certainly be achieved.'
Applications, which can be downloaded from our website www.sbba.org.uk, are already being accepted for our 2015 Easter and summer courses. For more information please contact SBBA secretary Tom Allan in the first instance.
