January

Happy New Year - we're very much looking forward to 2014.

We're busy planning our next concert on January 19th and we are delighted that young musicians from Devon Youth Jazz Orchestra are able to join us.

DYJO teaches young people from across the whole of Devon to play and perform a wide variety of Jazz. The Devon Youth Jazz Orchestra comprises the best of Devon's young jazz musicians and is split into two separate bands. DYJO2, under the direction of Brian Moore, is the younger of the two bands, and is focused on the essentials of big band playing. Brian studied music at Exeter University and now combines his performance and ensemble directing with teaching - he teaches brass and directs ensembles at Exeter School as well as teaching at Exeter University.

Brian and Mervyn are currently finalising the programme - we'll bring you all the information as we have it,

In the meantime, tickets are selling well - don't forget you can book direct with the Northcott Box Office on 01392 493493 or pop into Exeter Information Centre in Dix's Field, behind the Princesshay car park and you can buy your tickets there.
