Musical Director

Pelorus Trust Wellington Youth Brass


Our band has nurtured musical talent for over 12 years and enjoys performing across the Wellington region. Regularly attending Nationals, we were delighted to win the title at last year’s event in Napier.

With around 30 enthusiastic members, ranging in age from 8-20, we currently rehearse on Sunday afternoons, running a beginners group as well as the main band.

We benefit from community support and funding, backed up by substantial parental commitment.

We require a dedicated, innovative individual, passionate about youth development and keen to take on the challenge of leading our band into the future. This could be your first step into band management or an opportunity to share your experience with the next generation of brass players.

To find out more, call or email us in confidence on 021-719171 or youth@wellingtonbrass.net.nz.

Applications close 30 August 2010.
