Your guide to events in Nelson, New Zealand
Thursday 5th September 2024
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to play or sing with the Big Band? Now is your chance to sit alongside the band, and join in.
We will be practicing up to 7 songs in the evening, and you can see how our Musical Director tries hard to get the band into a performance ready state.
The plan is that we will have seats beside our band players so we can help you with reading parts etc so the band may possibly be 40 strong!!!!!!
If you would like to join in, please bring your instrument (we will have 2 practice drum kits so just bring your sticks). We will also have a couple of mics, but vocalists feel free to bring your own.
For anyone not musically inclined but interested in watching how a practice is run, seating will be available.
Below is a list of songs we will be rehearsing on Thursday 5th September. See our Webpage for a link to Youtube vids.
