Copyright Poynton Youth Brass Band  1982-2007

Joyce Hall, is the Musical Director of the Junior Band.        

Joyce says she has never had a band that sounded this good before! A testament to this was when the Junior Band took part in the Heaton Mersey Music Festival earlier this year and took First Place. The Junior band now take part in the Heaton Mersey Music Festival every year. 

The Junior band consists of approximately 35 members whose ages range from 7 to 16 all of mixed ability ranges, and improving all the time. Many of our “juniors” have gone through the learners groups and are “home grown”.                                               

Some of the Junior members accompanied the main Youth Band on their trips to Paris and Volkenburg.

The Junior Band accompanies the main Youth Band at various events throughout the year and more and more gets its own bookings to play at events such as "Praise in the Park" and Pott Shrigley Festivals.                                                                          

It is the aim of all the members in the Junior Band (we hope) to get accepted into the main Youth Band and we are pleased to say most do eventually get there.
