A full calendar of events for 2015 was confirmed at our recent quarterly forum meeting, including the first residential course of the Southern Counties Youth Band at Easter and plans to repeat the successful conductors’ workshop.
Unfortunately some issues with availability of The Hawth have affected our contest planning, leading to a couple of changes this year.
The traditional Spring contest will be replaced by a Quartet and Ensembles contest in Burgess Hill, and the Autumn Contest will be held on an earlier date than in previous years.
As there will only be 2 full band competitions in 2015, member bands were asked if they would prefer a Test Piece or Entertainments format in May and a clear majority voted to keep it as an Entertainments contest.
Dates and further information for each event are published on our Events page.
