TROMLINES 16 TROMBONE CHOIR

Directed by: Bob Hughes

Tromlines Trombone Choir was first formed in 2000 to give trombonists something a bit different to do!

Membership of the group is very fluid and the line-up is only generally assembled on the day of a gig for a few hours’ rehearsal. The only way that works is to use the best possible players, as is certainly the case here at the Y Theatre perforformance.

The group is delighted to be directed this evening by bass trombone legend and President of the British Trombone Society Bob Hughes.

The programme featured a set from the trombone section of the Syd Lawrence Orchestra, to give the rest of us a breather!
