The UoL Concert Band is a fun and friendly ensemble which invites all musicians to perform interesting music in a relaxed and welcoming envirnoment.
We rehearse every Tuesday 7-9pm in the Charles Wilson Building, Floor 10, on campus and aim to showcase our work at multiple performances a year, such as our end of term concerts and our campus Christmas events.
We play music of varying difficulty, ranging from traditional repertoire to scores of stage and screen. Everyone is welcome, though we do recommend players are able to read music to ensure you get the most out of our group! If you're not sure of your ability; come along and have a go - we can always adapt parts to suit you.
Our group is a Concert Wind Band; principally for those who play woodwind, brass and percussion. So if you play a wind, brass, percussion or any other instrument suitable for a concert wind band, then this is ensemble for you. (Ask us if you're not sure which ensemble is for you).
We do also love to socialise, so will often go out after rehearsals and on weekends. Previous socials have included the likes of;
- Mini Golf, Bowling, Go-Karting,
- Dessert nights, Pizza socials,
- Trips to see the Leicester Philharmonia Orchestra (and others) in concert at De Montfort Hall,
- Pub
Please contact us via email or instgram if you have any questions, we'll also be happy to chat at the fresher's fair in September - so come and speak to us!
