My main instrument is French Horn, I also play cornet (3rd cornet) in the Spokane British Brass Band and I play tenor horn when the brass band goes to the NABBA Competition here in the Unities States (we have played at that competition twice so far 2003 in Little Rock, Arkansas and 2005 in St. Charles Illinois. I have played the tenor horn in the solo and ensemble part and cornet in the band part). I play the French Horn in my church orchestra and with a small orchestra in the area.

I do, clearly not to the standard of most of you people, but I failed grade 4 clarinet beautifully, and I play in a school Celtic Rock group. We are going to Holland to play next week, in fact

No no no!! Stop slashing things!!

I have played cornet and trumpet for nearly 45 years. I currently perform with the Rio Grande Valley Concert Band and the Swing Street Big Band (McAllen, Texas). Great fun, but I have never had the opportunity to play in a true British Brass Band. Some of the finest musicians in the world got their start in a Brass Band; Mo Murphy and Rod Franks of the London Symphony, for example.

I play the Euphonium and I am a tutor on the Three Counties Youth Brass Band that brawnybalboa plays with.
