Youthful Brass Band to thrill the audience

 On Friday 29 March 2019, Rotary Nailsea and Backwell staged a concert

 at Nailsea School featuring the Lions Brass 4 Youth group.  This is the County

 Youth Brass Band and is open to young people aged 11 to 21.  Formed in 2008

 and based in Clevedon, there are now nearly 100 youngsters involved in 5 bands

 culminating in the highly professional and hugely talented group performing in

 this concert. Their repertoire is wide with songs from the shows, tunes from the

 20s and 30s all the way up to Robbie Williams numbers! There may be several 

 virtuoso pieces and is bound to be something to suit everyone who is lucky

 enough to attend. The group is led by their charismatic conductor, Dave Hollister.

 Half of the proceeds raised on the evening went to the band to purchase much

 needed instruments and the other half to Rotary’s Trust Fund for use in

 funding our work in the community.
