Altos:
Altos; Ceri, Peter, Liz, Gerard and Louise complete the alto sax section and provide principal altos Debbie and Amanda with solid support. Gerard, the band's youngest player, plays a mean 2nd alto part and is undoubtedly destined for great thing on his alto sax in years to come.

Clarinets:
Clarinets; Kevin, Jackie, Robert, Kayleigh and Hannah provide a great balance of experience and young talent in the clarinet section, with Jackie being musical director Brian's deputy, and Robert being the former musical director of the band who handed the baton to Brian in 2006.

Basses:
Basses; The heavy brigade! Christine, Fran, Terry, Keith and Ian operate at the low end of the band's range. The inimitable sound of Keith's baritone sax complements the two tubas beautifully and Christine's euphonium and Fran's tenor sax provide a nicely balanced mid-range duo.
|
Trombones:
Trombones; Glyn, Rebecca and Brian are the trombone section, but don't be surprised to see the multi-talented Rebecca pop up somewhere on the web site in the clarinet section or playing the band's oboe!

Trumpets:

William was classically trained at the French School of Music before moving to Cornwall to take up a teaching post, and was the organiser of the band's trip back to his native France to play at The French School of Music in 2005, (photos in the photo section).
