I would like to invite anyone within driving range of Raleigh, NC to come to a concert performed by the Triangle Youth Brass Band. TYBB are winners of the Youth Division at the 2001 and 2002 NABBA Championships, and will be performing at the Great American Brass Band Festival June 14-15 in Danville, KY. www.gabbf.com
Featured on this concert is one of the finest high school euphonium players around, Mr. Jesse Rackley. Jesse was a Falcone semi-finalist in 2002 and runner up in the youth solo competition at ITEC '02 in Greensboro. He is playing Spark's Pantomime. Another feature of this concert will be Tchaikovsky;s 1812 Overture, with antiphonal brass, played by former members of the TYBB.
