Amersham Youth Band is aimed at young brass players up to age 18 and at a standard of Grade 5 and above. The Youth Band has 15 rehearsals a year on Sunday mornings during term time. Paul Fisher and Ash Horton are the musical directors who work on repertoire to ensure that everyone can enjoy making music together whilst also learning how to improve their individual and ensemble playing.
We also support Amersham Youth Band with experienced players from our other bands to act as mentors. In addition to the monthly rehearsals, there are occasional performances to share the progress that the band is making with our local community. We also enter the Youth Band Championships, usually in March each year.
For the 2025 Spring term we will run rehearsals on 12 Jan, 26 Jan, 9 Feb, 23 Feb, and 23 Mar, starting at 10am and finishing at 1pm. The Youth Band will compete in the Youth Chamionships to be held in Hull on 29th March.
We are charging a rate of £150 per year to join the band. If you would like to express an interest then fill in our contact-us form and we will get in touch with more information.
