The modern and entertaining music played today by Rodney’s oldest band is a far cry from the military style of music it marched to 100 years ago.
The band has evolved over the past few years, with a marked change in musical style, and has recently introduced saxophones to the brass line-up.
“But, we need more players!” the band’s musical director, Alan Flack, says. “Clarinet, bass/rhythm guitar, and percussionists would all be welcomed. These instruments not only add tonal differences to the band’s sound, particularly when we perform the Big Band style of music, but also offers another outlet for instrumentalists. It’s a great opportunity to join such a fun and diverse group of musicians.”
The band rehearses on Wednesday nights at 7.30 pm in the band room (next to the Warkworth Fire Station). The first rehearsal of the year will be held on January 27.
If you play any brass instrument, saxophone, clarinet, bass/rhythm guitar, drums/percussion or piano/keyboards and can read printed music competently, Warkworth Brass is keen to hear from you.
