Willoughby Hearts Harold

On the morning of Thursday 26 February, commuters at Wynyard Station were treated to a special performance of the Neighbours theme tune by Willoughby Band.

The 16 player delegation from Willoughby Band were performing as part of the "I Heart Harold' campaign run by Network Ten.

The campaign is designed to encourage people to vote for Ian Smith, the actor who plays Harold Bishop on the Australian soap opera Neighbours, to win a Gold Logie Award.

After 22 years, Ian Smith is leaving the show to enter a well-deserved retirement.

More information about the campaign can be found at the I Heart Harold campaign website.

Celtic Brass Success

With Celtic Brass, the first concert our 2009 Concert Series, Willoughby Band has continued its tradition of enthralling and entertaining concerts, opening our golden anniversary series with a lauded performance to a full house.

 The band performed an enchanting collection of Scottish and Irish melodies, accompanied by a traditional bag-piper and a selection of gaelic poetry. As well as traditional melodies, the band presented a number of arrangements by well known composers such as Phillip Sparke and Darrol Barry, and featured both the principal cornet, Brian McGuinness, and the solo Euphonist Jeff Ma. 

A highlight of the concert was a foot-tapping rendition of the Irish Washerwoman, performed by the trombone section of Andrew Sambell, John Butterworth and Paul Mason, aka 'Mace', and joined by our musical director, Andrew Snell! The quartet were generous enough to include the band in their performance, as it is scored for trombone quartet and  'optional brass band'.

Willoughby followed up their successful concert with a critically acclaimed performace at the Ern Keller Memorial Band of the Year Contest on the following day.
