Braeside Weekend for Airplay and Fusion
Southampton Music Hub ensembles, Airplay and Fusion Brass, came together for a weekend of music and team building at Braeside in Wiltshire in the middle of May.
Zoe Hunting, Ensembles Manager at Southampton Music Hub, says:
“It is really lovely to see our ensembles working together and giving Southampton's young musicians such amazing opportunities outside their normal weekly rehearsals.”
Anna Robinson, Director of Airplay, says:
“It was great for Airplay and Fusion to have the opportunity to play together as a band and get to know one another socially. It was enjoyable for all involved, so much so we are now rebranding the joint band with the name F.A.B band (Fusion Airplay Band). I am sure this is going to be the first of many concerts and events Airplay and Fusion unite for.”
Some of the young musicians also shared their experiences:
“The balance between music and socializing was great and the facilities were great too!”
“The food was absolutely glorious and I loved the jacket potatoes.”
‘“It was an unmissable, musical experience.”
“The climbing wall was very fun (and scary!) I also enjoyed Bushcraft.”
