Brad takes the baton

It is with great pleasure that we announce the appointment of Brad Turnbull as our new Musical Director. We are excited to have him join our band and are looking forward to working with him to take our music to new heights.

Brad is a talented musician and a skilled conductor with a wealth of experience in the brass band world. He has worked with many successful bands, and we are confident that his leadership and musical experience will help us continue to grow and develop.

As a committee, we were impressed with Brad’s passion for brass banding and his commitment to working with the band to achieve its goals. His musical knowledge, experience and vision align perfectly with our band’s ethos and goals.

The band’s Chairman Matt Moran said, “We were thrilled to offer Brad the position of Musical Director and can’t wait to see the incredible talent, creativity and passion he’ll bring to our music.”

We would like to extend a warm welcome to Brad and wish him every success in his new role. We are confident he will be a valuable addition to our team, and we look forward to working with him to bring our music to life.

We would also like to take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks to Jack Fisher, who has been an integral part of our recent success in gaining promotion to the Championship section from 2024 and invitation to the National Finals in September 2023.

Brad said “I am eager to get into the band’s rehearsal schedule to start working with the players of this fine, solid sounding band as they progress to the Championship section in 2024. The band family at Bilton is strong with the system they have built up over many years. I would like to thank the band for the gigantic show of support and encouragement they have already given me. I am very excited to begin our journey together as we grow and evolve. I am also delighted that I will be assisting Jack Fisher as we all head towards the National Finals in September.”

Finally, we would like to thank all of our followers for their ongoing support of Bilton Silver (Rugby) Band. We look forward to seeing you all at our future concerts and events.
