Samantha Harrison on banding in lockdown, getting back to it and inspiring the next generation | episode 25
Elland Silver Youth Band’s inspirational musical director, Samantha Harrison, joins British Bandsman editor, Mark Good.
From its formation, the band has grown into a hugely successful multi-level setup, enjoying a host of competition wins including national and European titles. Sam reflects on some of the highlights so far and discusses how the organisation is planning for a brighter banding future.
Sam, who was born into a banding family, also charts her own musical path, from being invited to play a violin to having a tenor horn shoved in her hands before taking flight with the cornet.
But first, she discusses some of the ways the organisation has kept engaging with its members during 14 months like no other.
