New Instruments!

Posted byfavelabrassPosted inUncategorizedTags:, , , ,

Today Keith Alderson finished off repairing and servicing another batch of instruments to be taken out to Brazil and used in the project. As usual he charged only a token free, and also sold us a baritone horn for £30, much less than its real value.

Most of the instruments are ones that were donated by Longridge band this summer. However, the trumpet (bottom left) is a recent donation from Doncaster Music Service.

Many thanks to Keith, Longridge Band, and to Rona Gurnhill for arranging the donation of the trumpet from Doncaster Music Service.
