Waterbeach Brass placed in top half at London & Southern Counties Regional Contest
In the first areas contest since promotion to the 2nd Section, the band came a creditable 8th out of 16 bands.
Rhapsody In Brass was a tough contest piece, and required a step-up from the players to deliver a performance on the contest stage.
The top half result consolidates Waterbeach Brass in mid-table of the 2nd Section, a strong place to build from as we become accustomed to playing at a higher level.
Although fearful of the "curse of the pundits", the band were very flattered that both 4barsrest and Brass Band World placed us in the top two. It's good to know the performance was a crowd pleaser.
The focus now turns to summer as we prepare our new concert programme.
