A Conducting Experience
Has any Brass Band ever thought of offering the opportunity for people to Conduct there Band through a rehearsal?
My thoughts :
Why not offer this opportunity?
Get people to pay for the privilege and raise funds for your Band.
Rates to charge could depend on the Bands standard, higher the grade higher the cost.
It would allow band Conductors the possibility to conduct a higher grade band than they are used to.
Providing Brass Band Conductors more experience.
Also this would allow Brass Band players the chance to try there hand at Conducting.
You never know, you might even find a new star Conductor!
Even if it was offered to the general public, it could be a good money earner for all Brass Bands.
I would appreciate any comments, also if your Brass band does offer this now or probably in the future
Pass on the details on this Board in the forum.
Thank you

One of the things I have tried is to take a piece to a higher section band and rehearse it through, I was then able to try a few things to see how they sound before going back to my own band and putting my thoughts into practice. This worked well with the area test piece where I had some ideas that I wanted to try out before trying them with my band, it worked well and saved a a couple of rehearsals with my own lot.
