Brass band in Godalming since 1937
Godalming Band seeks applicants for the vacant post of Youth Band Musical Director.
Godalming Band is a friendly, hard-working and committed group who aspire to a high standard of music-making whilst enjoying the process. We are proud of our inclusive atmosphere and our commitment to developing all players, regardless of age or ability.
The Youth Band is an integral part of Godalming Band and as such the Musical Directors of both bands work together to ensure transition between the two bands.
Godalming Youth Band rehearses on a Monday evening, from 6pm until 7.50pm, during term time at our own band room in Godalming, Surrey and currently undertake a limited programme of public performances. These performances include the Youth Band sharing with the Godalming Band in the well attended Christmas Concert and also entering the Godalming Performing Arts Festival annually where they have seen success in recent years.
We are currently going through a transition period with some of our older members leaving for university and new players coming in. As well as working to ensure the continued success of our Youth Band, we are looking for someone who can work with the wider band organisation to build the youth and training opportunities available.
We look forward to welcoming you soon as we embark on the next chapter of our band’s story.
Please contact the Band Secretary, Wendy Ball (secretary@godalming.band) in confidence for further information on the position and application process. Closing date for applications Friday 21st June 2019.
