Welcome to the home of the Yorkshire Regional 2nd Section Champions 2010!
Overall though there was much to enjoy, with the top three bands standing apart from the rest, and for the judges, the winners, a good length clear of the field.
Knottingley in their Rothwell look-alike maroon shirts and black waistcoats delivered a telling performance under the direction of Dr Owen Wedgwood that was a model of consistent values for the men in the box.
Boldly coloured, detailed (with a cracking flugel horn who took the ‘Best Soloist’ Award) and intelligently directed, it ticked all the right boxes.
KSB is based in the town of Knottingley near Wakefield, West Yorkshire. In addition to a regular concert schedule, the band also currently competes in the Yorkshire Second Section. If you want to come for a blow, we practice just behind the Conservative Club in Knottingley between 8 and 10pm on a Monday and Thursday. You can find us here.
We would like to welcome the following new players to the band:
- Julia Sanders (Cornet)
- David Jackson (Repiano)
- Mike Mitchell (Bass Trombone)
We now have very few vacancies so if you would like the chance to play with us then get in touch. We are looking for the following players:
- Front Row Cornet
- B Flat Bass
Please do look around our website, here you can get information about the latest news, the bands current concert listings and also the band's recordings.
To contact the band, please email our secretary, Clare Spragg; or for concert information, booking and ticket reservations email our concert secretary Patrick Draper.
