Home > News > Goodbye at Yiewsley & West Drayton Band
 
21 July 2008
 
     
   Goodbye at Yiewsley & West Drayton Band
     
Yiewsley & West Drayton say goodbye to undoubtedly one of the south’s finest principal cornet players, Gordon Poole.
 
Yiewsley & West Drayton Band wished a fond farewell to Gordon after he gave his final concert appearance with the band at Pinewood Studios on Sunday 13th July after 10 years of loyal service, having played previously for Hinchcliffe Mill Band, West Yorkshire.
 
Gordon’s musical contribution to the band has been fundamental to its contest success and progression to the second section, winning numerous soloist prizes along the way!
 
Gordon added: “I have made lots of friends and have many fond memories of my time at Yiewsley & West Drayton Band and wish the band all the very best for the future”.
