Band Members
Meet the playing members of the Tongwynlais Temperance Band
A traditional British style brass band that competes in contests normally consists of twenty five brass players and the number of percussion players needed to perform a set work or programme. This number is set by the strict rules for contesting that help ensure a level playing field for all competitors. However, for concerts and to allow for players to fill gaps when needed, the band is able to register more than the maximum number allowed in most contests.
Here is the make up of the current band:
| Cornets: | Danny Winder, Darren Thomas, Grace Thomas, Jeff Fear, John Evans, Lee Elliott, Harry Browning, Paul Rayner, Katy Rennie, Will Jones, Rob Nesbitt |
| Horns: | Ffion Williams, Haydn Brown, Trevor McCormick, Michelle Williams |
| Euphoniums: | David Johnson, Shoko Doherty |
| Baritones: | Georgie Evans, Ange Farr |
| Trombones: | Nils Richards, James Norman, Matt Davies |
| Basses: | Patrick Miller, Bradley Turpin, Alice Tracey, Andrew Robins, Paul Baxter |
| Percussion: | Megan Jackson, Faye Jones, Ed Hayes, Alfie Ireland |
If you would like to join the band, we are always keen to hear from suitably experienced players willing to deputise or join as a full member. Please email secretary@tongwynlaisband.wales to get in touch.
