Player Development (Croydon)

Brass Bands England's brand new Player Development workshops will be led by Roger Webster and Paul Cosh. These workshops look to improve the overall quality of bands playing and performance. In these sessions, Paul focuses on essentials of brass playing, looking at practical exercises to improve your individual playing to heighten the bands overall sound.
