For our September edition of “From The Bandroom”, we’re back in Cumbria to visit the Egremont Town Band.
Established in 1904, after the demise of the Egremont Volunteer Band, they had their first engagement on 24th June at the Gosforth Annual Sports Day. Today, they are a traditional non-contesting village band performing regularly at events in the area.
The band rehearses at Egremont Parish Church Hall under conductor Paul Worthington. We’ll be talking to Paul and to players and officials of the band, but, as always, most of the show is filled with the music recorded on our visit to their bandroom.
From The Bandroom with Egremont Town Band, 10pm, Friday 26th September on East Leeds Community Radio.
