The Wychavon Contest is very popular date in the brass band calendar. We were competing in the the Championship section as the first band from Devon to compete at this top level.
As part of their programme, every band is required to feature a soloist and the winners of this prize are rightly lauded throughout the brass band movement. The absolute brilliant news is that Megan Newbury, our 17-year-old assistant principle cornet player was the star of the entire contest and was the winner of the solo prize.
