(June 2014) We’re pleased to announce the appointment of our new Principal Cornet, Emily Roberts.
Emily works as a brass teacher for Northamptonshire Music And Performing Arts Trust.
She joins us from the Brass Band of Central England (formerly the Jaguar Landrover Band). She studied music at the University of York, and while there she played for York Railway Institute Band, and won best soloist at Unibrass Contest 2021.
Aside from banding, she also spends a lot of time singing in operas.
Emily joins us as we embark on our busy summer programme, and as we start to prepare for the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain in September, where we’ll be representing the Midlands as Champion Band from the 3rd Section.
We’re thrilled to welcome Emily to Thrapston Town Band.
