SUMMARY:Blow the Dust off your Instrument!
DESCRIPTION:String Orchestra\, Swing Band\, Flute Ensemble\, Clarinet Choir\, Wind Band\, Double Reed Ensemble \nDid you learn to play an instrument when you were at school but haven’t got it out of the case for a long time?

The principal conductors will be Angela Kay\, Chris McDouall\, Gill Henshaw\, Phil Smith and Kerry Lovell.
