Prudhoe Community Band<\/strong> is a Concert Band based in Prudhoe, Northumberland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We meet regularly on Saturday mornings throughout term time to rehearse and enjoy playing music together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rehearsals take place on Saturday mornings between 9:45am and 11:45am We are based at Prudhoe Social Club, South Road Prudhoe. See our calendar for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band has 50+ players of all ages and abilities and welcomes new members particularly younger players.  We have several families whose parents and children play together including one family of three generations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We play a wide range of music  from simple but fun pieces,  to challenging classical scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever your style we are bound to have a piece you enjoy playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many younger players have developed their abilities whilst playing in the band and have gone on to study music in higher education and achieve very high standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We play at various venues throughout the year culminating in our annual concert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band is conducted by our musical director and renowned Trumpeter Dave Hignett, known for his boundless enthusiasm, exceptional musicianship and unique sense of humour!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
