Horns

The horn section is normally made up of three tenor horns in Eb and one flugel horn in Bb.

The flugel and solo horn combine with the back row cornets to provide the alto voice of the brass band. The 1st and 2nd horn at times support the melodic lines (in unison or harmony) and at other times provide a more rhythmical function.

The sound of the horn section when combined with baritones are what give the brass band its unique identity.

Here is a list of our current horn players:
