Wind Band Workshop

Beenham Wind Orchestra proudly presents a Wind Band Workshop to celebrate its 25th anniversary.

We are delighted to welcome our guest conductor Thomas (Tom) Milford. An award‑winning conductor, composer and arranger, Tom trained at the Royal Military School of Music, Kneller Hall, graduating with prizes in conducting and composition. He went on to serve as Bandmaster of the Royal Lancers Band and later had the privilege of leading one of the finest Bands in the British Army – the Coldstream Guards. Tom brings a unique blend of warmth, inspiration and authority, encouraging players of all levels to reach their best.

Attendees will rehearse two vibrant works:

• The Ghost Ship by Jose Alberto Pina - a thrilling, evocative tone poem steeped in legend.

• The Wishing Well by Rossano Galante - a lyrical, cinematic piece brimming with sweeping melodic lines.

This is a wonderful opportunity for wind musicians to come together, make music and celebrate our milestone anniversary. We welcome non-members of Grade 6 standard and above. The workshop runs from 10:00 to 16:30. The fee of £20 includes refreshments and lunch, and is payable in advance.
