Audition Results and First Rehearsal

Congratulations to those who were successful in their auditions this year and commiserations to those who weren't - competition for places was as steep as ever and the standard was incredible: a fantastic year of Big Band lies ahead... 

The first rehearsal is this Friday and we're looking forward to seeing fresh faces old and new and tucking into some funky new charts!

FRESH 2012!

Hi! Thanks for coming to find us at the FRESHers Fair! About 170 of you turned up to join the society, which could make for a record breakingly large first rehearsal. For those auditioning, auditions begin in just a few days time, so get practicing!

We'll be contacting everyone by email shortly about the exciting things we'll be getting up to this year, and when its all kicking off :)

Tour 2012

Tour 2012 was a massive success with both bands travelling to the south of France. We played gigs in Avignon, Pernes-les-Fontaines, and Fontaine-de-Vaucluse and were well received at all of them. Playing in the shadow of the Palais du Papes was was an especially memorable event.

It was the biggest tour the society has run with a total of 72 members travelling for 10 days playing 5 gigs. Huge thanks to the tours officers Doug and Patrick for such a well organised trip.
