Groby
Spring 2009
Members
of the band were in fine form at the 2009 Spring Leicestershire Brass
Band Association annual open solo and quartet competition, held at
Groby Community College. The band members took several prizes,
including first and second in the open duet for Sam Scutt, Graham
Jacklin, Nick Lear and Richard Capstack respectively, as well as second
and third places for Steve Barham in the air varie and slow melody
classes.
A number of the band's younger members, Milli Jacklin 4th and Harry
Lear 5th, Bethan Brown, Jack Brown, Marina Slee, Francis Gallimore,
Lucy Capstack, Joanne McDonald and Jack Rudin also took part.
The band's quartet was pitched against some strong
opposition, only managing a 4th place. A bit more practice
should soon put this right! |

Sam
Scutt and the band's MD, Graham Jacklin, took the top honours in the
open duet class, fending off their nearest rivals, the band's principle
cornet player, Nick Lear and his assistant, Richard Capstack. In
the end Sam and Graham were triumphant, playing a the duet 'Pleasant
Moments' on two soprano cornets - most unusual!
