We’ll be tweeting about all our upcoming events, so you’ll always know where you can hear us next.

Fulham Brass Band were busy as usual over the Easter weekend. The band performed throughout Saturday afternoon at Craven Cottage, the home of Fulham Football Club, to entertain the crowds watching the University boat race. We would like to extend our hearty congratulations to the Cambridge rowers on a fantastic win.

A reduced band also performed a concert on Good Friday at the King’s Mall in Hammersmith as part of their Easter celebrations. The band entertained shoppers with a selection of crowd pleasers.

On Saturday 20th March, Fulham Brass Band competed in the regional qualifiers in Stevenage and were placed FIRST! in a field of 14 similarly ranked bands! The test piece was Labour and Love by Percy Fletcher, a classic of  the brass band repertoire, and the first original piece of contest music for the genre being composed in 1914. Read more

On 20th February, Fulham lent their services to ITV to help entertain the crowd’s at the Tonight programme’s “Kiss for a quid” event. Broadcast on 18th March, the event raised money for the Haiti disaster relief efforts. Read more

The Fulham Brass Band have now finalised the rehearsal schedule for the Area contest on March 20th. The set piece is ‘Labour and Love’ by Percy Fletcher and the score makes demands of a number of the band’s principal players:-

• Principal Cornet: Victoria Curran
• Solo Horn: Ally Crowther
• Solo Baritone: Louise Harrison
• Solo Trombone: Paul Lynch
• Solo Euphonium: Mike Dean

Following the departure of Andrew Sladen from the band in January, an EGM was held in early February to appoint an interim Band Secretary. We are pleased to announce that Chris Wiggins has been elected to fill this very important role for the band until the Annual General Meeting in April. Ally Crowther has also been elected as interim Band Treasurer. Both will now work with the Chairman and MD over the next couple of months to put in place a plan to help the band to continue to develop during 2010.

The band is very sad to lose our principal cornet and band secretary, Andrew Sladen, due to a relocation with work. Andy served Fulham Brass Band fantastically over a number of years as principal cornet player and during the last 12 months as a very effective and well liked Band Secretary. The Butlins contest in January was due to be Andy’s last official job with the band, but it has been agreed that Andy will come back for the Area contest in March. This contest marks a key stage in the development of the band over the last couple of years and top 5 result may see the band get promoted to the 2nd section for the first time in its history. A process to appoint a new principal cornet will now begin.
