King’s Division to Smithills

The Band of The King’s Division are to spend a full day at Smithills School in October working with all of the senior brass and percussion players in the school and giving a joint afternoon concert with Smithills Senior Brass Band to a packed hall of invited primary schools and band parents.

Smithills MD Chris Wormald commented “Over the past 26 years we have welcomed so many fantastic bands and conductors to Smithills, from Eikanger and Ray Farr to the Coldstream Guards, Roy Newsome with Japanese Ladies Brass, Forre Musikkorps, Frank Renton, Jason Katsikaris and many more, so we are delighted to be hosting the King’s Division on Wednesday October 12th.”

At the invitation of the KIng's Division band, Smithills have invited all local sixth form brass and percussion players to attend the full day completely free of charge and anyone interested in participating can contact Chris Wormald at c.wormald@smithillsschool.net or cj.wormald@btopenworld.com
