Double Signing at Hammonds
The Hammonds Band has recently welcomed the signings of Jacob Hickson on second euphonium and Will Savage on percussion.
Jacob is going into his final year at Huddersfield University and is also the solo euphonium at the Band of the Royal Regiment and a former 'Best Soloist' award winner at the UniBrass Championships.
Will has just finished his studies at Chetham's School of Music before heading to the RNCM in Manchester in September. He has also been a member of the National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain and a talented composer.
Commenting on the new appointments, Hammonds MD Morgan Griffiths said, "I'm delighted to welcome these two talented musicians. Jacob is already fitting in well with the euphonium and baritone row, and it is very special for me to see Will join as I have known him since he started out his playing journey."
