Spaces on Brass Academy Easter Course – Bushey, 7-11 April 2014

This is a reminder about The Brass Academy’s Easter Course, which runs from 7 - 11 April 2014 at The Purcell School in Hertfordshire. We currently have over 50 boys and girls booked on the course, with a nice spread of ages, abilities and instruments.

The course is for brass players aged 8 -18 of Grade 1 – Grade 8 standard, and runs from 9.30am to 6pm daily. There will be small and large ensembles, daily masterclasses, a course competition, tutor demonstrations and an end-of-course concert: and in addition to the music sessions there will be two hours of organised sport and activities in the afternoon. There is also an exciting programme of evening events for those staying on a residential basis.

Confirmed course tutors are Mark David (Artistic Director and Head of Brass at the Royal Academy of Music), Philippe Schartz (international soloist and Principal Trumpet of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales), Tom Rainer (Director of Music at Aldro School, Surrey), Simon Morgan (horn player at The Lion King in London), and Doug Coleman.

We have about 15 more places available on The Brass Academy Easter Course and I would be very grateful if you would let your brass pupils, teachers and parents know about the course, if they do not already, so that any remaining places can be booked for children who would like to attend.

For further details, please contact me at ann@brass-academy.co.uk or on 07919 123231; or you can visit www.brass-academy.co.uk.
