Mike Lovatt to star at Brass in Concert
The organisers of the Brass in Concert Championship have announced that trumpet star Mike Lovatt is to present a masterclass on the Saturday of this year's event at Sage Gateshead. The Masterclass will be held in the Northern Rock Foundation Hall at 4.00pm on Saturday 17th November. Admission is free, although patrons are advised to be there early as numbers are limited.
BiC Chairman John Woods stated, "We're delighted to announce that our annual Brass in Concert Masterclass will be hosted by Mike Lovatt, who is widely regarded as one of the world's most versatile and gifted trumpeters.
Mike has performed with leading artists ranging from Quincy Jones to Tom Jones, his list of West End show and film credits is extensive and he is also the top trumpet of the hugely-popular John Wilson Orchestra.
No wonder we are thrilled that he will now also feature with newly crowned National Champions Foden's in this year's World of Brass in Concert, entitled, 'Sinatra and the Swing Legends'."
