Training Concert Band is for brass and woodwind instrumentalists who can read music and play at least an octave on their instrument. Percussionists are invited to join once they have been members of Junior Percussion. The emphasis is on improving sight-reading, discovering a range of musical genres and making friends as part of playing in a large ensemble. Members of all three MMF concert bands are invited to perform in the biennial Music is for Life concert at the Royal Albert Hall as part of a massed band item as well as at end-of-term concerts.
