FYCB busy online in 2020

The band has continued to shine online, adapting quickly to online meetings since March, 2020.In Term 2 we met for warm-ups and recorded weekly challenges, keeping each other motivated during the difficult period.Throughout Term 3, having gone into lockdown No. 2, the band partook in the Halfa With a Master series. This was a series of 30 minute interviews with 10 professional musicians from around the world who donated their time to chat to host Louisa and the band about all things music: routine, career stories, tools for performance anxiety, repertoire ideas and more. We are so grateful to all the Masters who took the time to chat with us!In Term 4 we are continuing warm ups and being mentored by three professional musicians in their area of expertise: high brass, low brass, and percussion. Each month band members submit a recording of a piece to receive feedback on. Repertoire themes include: October- articulation and/ or dynamics, November- lyricism, December- own choice.Now that restrictions are easing, we hope to be playing together soon!
