About
the band:
Established in 1908, West Chiltington Silver Band is successfully
managing to buck a trend that has seen the end of many traditional
brass bands. Thanks to MD Annette's firm but gentle leadership
the band nearly always fills the practise room to the brim!
This
friendly West Sussex brass band has continued its renaissance
under MD Annette with an April wedding – playing for
the arrival of the newlyweds at their reception in West
Chiltington Village Hall. A beautiful spring day and a very
satisfactory performance by the band! Pictures are on our
gallery pages…
Summer'08
has seen our successful centennial celebrations come and
go. A really fun tour, playing around local towns and villages
on the top of an open top bus.
We
followed this with a big summer party with invited guests
from our near history and beyond. Pictures of both events
are in the gallery
Please
have a look at our
pictures
for a good idea of who we are. Of
course the best way to find out about us is to come and
meet us on Wednesday nights.
We
always welcome new players for all brass, age isn't a problem
- our youngest full band member is 10, while our oldest
is - well pretty old. We have no auditions and no minimum
grades - the aim is to enjoy playing together, generally
have fun and to maintain the brass band tradition in our
beautiful West Sussex corner of rural England.
If
you are interested in booking the band or would like to
play then please contact us.
