🎺Thanks to our amazing performers who took part in the Solo Series no. 8 concert this evening.

🎵We enjoyed a lovely selection of pieces ranging from Tchaikovsky to George Michael! Well done to talented Tabitha for writing an excellent duet which she played with fellow WYB member, Holly. We are particularly grateful to Brian for accompanying our players so expertly.

Final day of the WSB Annual Festival Digital Concert.

Thank you so much to all those who have listened to all the performances this week. Whether you’re a supporter or player in any one of our bands, please do come along to concerts and support others in the community, it really does make a world of difference.

Theres only one closing number that could have been the grand finale this week. It just had to be Brass Machine, featuring Wantage Concert Brass and Youth Band.

Day four of the WSB annual festival digital concert!

Another item all good concert needs are solo performances. We are lucky to have lots of talented musicians at WSB, and Wantage Band’s Esme Harper composed this number, Rondo Capriccioso, for fellow bass player Drew Prichard.

There aren’t a lot of Bb bass solos available in the brass band library, so this was written to show off just what the instrument can do!

Day 3 of the WSB annual festival digital concert!

No concert is complete without a good crowd pleaser. Today’s feature is the combined forces of the Community Band and Training Band delighting the audience with their rendition of Bring Me Sunshine.

Day two of the WSB annual festival digital concert.

Today features the mighty Wantage Academy Band playing a beautiful arrangement of well loved hymn Abide with Me. Hymns are a great way to show off a band’s control of softer dynamics, which WAB demonstrate fantastically here, and the results are often magical.

We can’t believe it’s already been two weeks since the WSB annual festival!

We realise that over the weekend, no one can see every band, so we thought we would put together a ‘digital concert’ this week, featuring each of the bands that took part.

Every concert needs a big opener to get everyone in the mood, so we will start off with Wantage Band and this awesome little number, Valasia Variants. Enjoy, and see you all tomorrow for more.

We promise it will be A Grand Day Out. 🚀
There isn't an easy way to fit The Curse of the Were-Rabbit into a pun... 🐰
