Enderby Senior Band MD’s Report April 2023
It is my pleasure to be able to write my second report in the role of Musical Director with Enderby Senior band.
Last year saw much progress being made across the band, with the band recording, what I understand to be, its best ever set of contest results. This was followed by a solid 6[th] place finish at the area again this year (matching last year’s heights) and a disappointing 3[rd] place finish at the inaugural ‘ConStest’ in Birmingham which, nevertheless, proved to be a very worthwhile and enjoyable contest to attend.
We know that progress never moves in a straight line and, overall, there is great confidence that the band is still improving and, not only this, but we now have a full set of players around the stands, including 2 regular percussionists. This gives us an extremely solid foundation on which to move forward and means the future is remains extremely bright indeed.
We have also been lucky that the band has extremely good relationships with a number of other bands in the area and therefore sourcing dep players when needed has also been more straightforward than might otherwise have been the case. Particular thanks should be given to Danielle for all her hard work in this regard however, as it can be a thankless task and it is one she consistently attacks with great energy and tenacity.
The current solution to the bandroom issue sees us remaining at Stamford Court (University of Leicester), which continues to provide us with a smart, modern room, with a reasonably dry acoustic to rehearse in, as well as the option of rehearsing in its auditorium, giving a boomier acoustic, which is an incredibly useful alternative to have. It does however mean that percussion needs to be set up from scratch for every rehearsal and, not only is this onerous, but it is not good for the instruments to be constantly moved in this way and therefore means they are likely to have a much-shortened usable life than they would if they were stationary for the majority of their existence.
Within the bandroom - the sound, technique, rehearsal routines and overall standard of the band is much improved from this time last year and we continue to have a clear direction about what we need to do next in order to continue this upward trajectory.
Upcoming events for the remainder of 2023 to demonstrate this trajectory include the upcoming ‘Spring Festival’ in Blackpool (where the band will aim to improve on its 6[th] pace finish last year), a return to Stoney Stanton for a Coronation Concert and and a Joint Concert with the Youth Band.
Following this will be the Autumn schedule of contests before we round the year off in traditional fashion with the Annual Christmas Concert in Enderby Church.
Additionally, the recent creation of (and hopefully appointment to) the role of ‘Concert Secretary’ aims to help to fulfil the band and committee’s wish to introduce a wider variety of regular high quality concerts to the band’s schedule and allow us to develop a wider musical repertoire in this area as well as on the contest stage.
All in all the band remains extremely well positioned to continue its positive development and to follow the example set by other regional bands recently in having both the talent and organisational commitment to close the gap to the ‘top table’ of Brass Banding in this country.
Once again however, this will require a great deal of hard work and the greatest challenge remains ensuring that the band can effectively counter the impact of ‘busy people leading busy lives’ and really achieve consistency of approach and attendance in the band room on a weekly basis, particularly in the 2 weeks before a competition.
The most obvious example of this was the poor level of attendance in the wee build up propr to ConStest. Whilst all for genuine reasons, this unquestionably impacted significantly on the performance quality and it is clear that we have not yet mastered the art of ‘raising our game’ during the immediate build up to a contest in order to ensure we hit peak form at the right time. This will be the focus of much work during the coming year in order to ensure we can reach our undoubted potential.
If we can continue to work to overcome this (simple but incredibly challenging) issue, I believe the band remains extremely well placed to continue to develop itself as a band of real weight and quality which can be a force to be reckoned with on both concert and contest stages.
I look forward to the next 12 months of hard work and further development.
Stephen Phillips Musical Director Senior Band
Enderby Youth Band Trustee’s Report 2022 - 2023
The Youth band has had an active year. On the contest front we very much enjoyed our visit to the “Bold as Brass” event at the National Mining Museum in Wakefield. This took place in June 2022 and was organised by Brass Band England. The sun shone and we had a lovely day out, finishing with two awards (Best Youth Band, and best Basses on the March).
In March of this year we once again attended the Youth Champs, which were held in Stockport. There was a strong field of 15 bands in the Performance section and we were delighted to achieve a Silver award, which placed us somewhere between 4[th] and 8[th] on the day. The band played extremely well, and this was reflected in the complimentary comments from the adjudicators.
Concert wise, we enjoyed sharing the stage with the Senior Band in June last year, the Junior and Concert Bands in December and March of this year, and we also played our annual community concert for the Blaby Meridian Rotary Club in March.
Christmas was also the usual busy time. Besides our own organisation concert, the Youth Band played for the Blaby District Council Carol service, alongside events at Sutton Cheney, Higham on the Hill, Ullesthorpe, and at a number of fundraising sessions in Asda.
Membership
This year has been an excellent year for the Youth Band as we have now begun to rebuild our numbers. Our current playing strength stands at 26 players, which is up from 20 at this time last year. We only lost one player (Naomi Boulter) to University in September.
Our Junior Band has once again been a fertile source of new recruits. In the past year from the Junior Band we have welcomed Tom Allsopp and Tarin Furborough on Cornet; Nuala Rogers and Lilia Shaw on Horn and Aoife Harrison on Trombone. James Calen on percussion has also been attending some rehearsals. In addition to this we have also welcomed Ace Monk on Trombone, Nicholas Love on Tenor Horn, and Emily Walker on Bass.
Sadly for us, but wonderful for him, Eden McClumpha has now departed the Youth Band to begin his training as an Army musician. Eden began following his family tradition by learning to play in the Junior Band. He progressed on to become a leading player of the Youth Band where he was not only an excellent player, but also a huge character in the band who made all our players feel welcome and part of the EYB family. Eden is the latest in the long line of fine players who have progressed through the Enderby organisation before heading off to music college, or to make a career from playing in the armed forces. We wish him lots of luck for the future.
Disappointingly, a change of family circumstances has also led to the departure of Chris Allen from the band this month with immediate effect. He is also a Bass player, and had started with the Junior Band, and potentially had a couple more years with us, so we are sorry to see him go.
In the past year, I have visited a couple of local primary schools (Danemill, and Greystokes) to present an assembly about the opportunities offered by the Junior Band, and this has resulted in a handful of recruits.
Finally…
After much reflection, I have decided that after 19 fulfilling years as the Musical Director of the Enderby Youth Band, the time has come to step aside from the role. The time has come for a fresh face with fresh ideas and renewed enthusiasm to work with our amazing young people. It has
been an honour to work with wave after wave of talented players through the years, and I have special memories of outstanding performances, contest experiences, and tours abroad to treasure forever.
I hope to continue to support the work of the band with a background role on the committee, and also intend to offer help and support at the Junior Band rehearsals on a Monday night.
I would once again like to record my thanks to the ever supportive committee, and also to the parents of band members who frequently have to go the extra mile to get their children to rehearsals and events.
Trevor Hounsome May 2023
Enderby Junior Band Report 2022 – 2023
This year I have felt that the band has really grown and become more confident throughout the year.
I’ve been able to send 6 players up to the youth band during the year and have been lucky that they have stayed with the junior band as well to enhance the players that are there.
The junior band numbers have also increased this year thanks to Trevor who has taken the time to go into some more local primary schools. I am still getting new enquiries which is amazing, so a big thank you to Trevor for his time and help on this, much appreciated.
I changed my focus after Christmas onto the learner players and how to bring these on within the band with limited helpers that could take players out at the time. This was a challenging time for me, but I really feel now that the band is progressing more and more. The helpers within the band have been amazing as always and I have now allocated players to them. This has meant that the players are also being seen on a more regular basis and this will give the players the confidence and knowledge that they need to play with the band and hopefully aid the progression towards the youth band. I am as always so grateful to all the helpers that come along to the junior band, parents, family and youth band players that continue to come along and sit in alongside the players.
I have also been very impressed with the commitment within the band which has shown at the engagements we have had throughout the year, with nearly a full band at each job. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the players and the parents for this.
I would also like to thank the committee for all of their work and interest that they have shown for the junior band this year and supporting me. I am looking forward to the year ahead and how far the players can progress. Sam McClumpha
Junior Band MD
Concert Band Report For 2022 - 2023
Over the past year the concert band has grown in numbers, with the addition of some youth band members who came and played during the summer holidays and have continued to come to rehearsals, with the understanding that their loyalty to the youth band comes first.
We are also pleased to welcome 2 members from the wind band, Helen and Malcolm, but we could still like some more cornet players for both the front and back row.
We would also like a permanent percussionist which would enhance our performances greatly; we are indebted to Oliver from the Youth band for helping us out on the various concerts.
During the past year we played at Western Park, Wakefield Mining Museum, Blaby Church, our own joint Christmas concert, Leicester Indoor Bowls Club where we had a roast meal, and our joint concert at the church in March.
The playing standard of the band has improved considerably during the past 12 months due mainly to playing some more challenging music by Rob Wiffin and other well-known composers and arrangers in the brass band fraternity.
Although it is not the answer to our prayers the Rob John Hall has been very good to us and accommodated us and the junior band and they have also found us some more storage space.
As a band we are looking forward to playing at various locations and entertaining the general public with our variety of music.
Regards Stewart Osgood Concert Band MD.
Musical Director’s Report for Enderby Wind Band 2022-23
It seems hardly believable that because of COVID and its associated lockdowns, it’s three years since I had to write an MD report for Enderby Wind Band.
When we first started meeting again (after COVID) I think it’s fair to say that we all returned with some trepidation, not sure how many would return to regular music making or indeed if we would be safe doing so! After a few tentative weeks of avoiding close contact and barely daring to speak to one another, I’m delighted to say that things soon returned to normal; lockdowns and social distancing soon became a distant memory.
A surprising but very welcome side effect of the COVID period is that we had an influx of new players eager to rekindle their music making, such that the band grew from approximately 25 regular attendees pre-COVID to over 40, an increase of almost 40%. This has now settled down to regular attendance by around 35 to 38 musicians, still a healthy increase on the pre-COVID period.
The majority of our new players are experienced musicians which has had a very positive effect on the quality of the band’s sound and musicality of performance. I am now able to put far more detail and musical nuance into the music we play.
As well as returning to regular weekly rehearsals, the Training Weekend was also resurrected albeit only for one day. This took place on 28[th] January and was a resounding success. Thanks to Aaron for taking the morning session which I was unable to attend. As well as the undoubted musical benefits of this concentrated rehearsal period, it was also a great social event, creating a real sense of unity amongst band members.
Tony Rifugiato MD Enderby Wind Band
Senior Band Treasurers Report
As the organisation is still homeless the year has caused a strain on the finances so the reserve fund once again had to support the current account causing balances to drop.
We did manage to get income from a few bookings but the carolling, bookings and concert income in December was reduced compared to previous years, we did invest in a card reader so that helped as cash is not carried so much nowadays, so it was a good investment.
Going forward the band is conscious that funds have to be managed and are hoping to do more of our own events going forward, but obviously will still want to enter contests as that is what the band does. Looking on the bright side we are hoping not to have to pay expenses for deputy players as the band has filled nearly all the seats including having percussionists on board.
My thanks again go to the committee and members for their support and understanding.

Treasurer’s Report Enderby Junior, Youth and Concert Bands Treasurer’s Report for the Year ended 31st March 2023
The Junior, Youth and Concert Bands held funds totalling £32,560.95 at the year ending 31st March 2023, an increase of £159.33 on the prior year.
Funds were held in as follows: Current Account £ 6,366.65 Reserve Account £26,017.47 Cash in Hand £ 109.00 Sum Up – card receipts £ 67.83
After the challenges of lockdown and Covid restrictions from previous years, the three bands cautiously returned to pre-pandemic in-person activities. With the additional challenge of the cost of- living crisis, the committee felt it was right to maintain subscriptions at pre-pandemic levels in the year despite the rise in costs associated with increased energy bills of the bands’ rehearsal venues.
There was a concerted effort to encourage members who had temporarily suspended their subscriptions during the pandemic to start contributing once again. This, combined with more players joining the Junior Band and players moving from the Junior to Youth Band (extra £2 per month) helped to improve the overall subscriptions income for the year.
The increase in bank interest rates meant that it became worthwhile placing funds in the Business Reserve account and therefore a policy of transferring surplus funds out of the current account was adopted during the year.
With careful planning and a successful Christmas period, the Bands were able to invest in new music and a programme of repairing and maintaining the Organisation’s stock of instruments. In particular, the Concert Band purchased some fine and challenging arrangements which were well received by
the audience as a part of their Christmas programme.
Despite the requirement to keep a tight control on the bands’ expenditure during the year, the committee felt that the social aspect of being a member of one of the three bands was not to be overlooked, especially after the isolation of lockdown. Therefore, the committee was able to subsidise three enjoyable social events to which family members were also invited.
Funds raised at our popular joint concerts added to the year-end financial position which will enable the Bands to continue to provide quality musical experiences for their members and local community audiences.

Enderby Wind Band Treasurer Report 2022-2023
EWB have had another successful year and whilst we still have a healthy bank balance (£6,245.69 as of 31st March), this is around £1143 lower than at the end of the last financial year (£7389.05). As so many of our members continued to pay their monthly subs throughout the period when were unable to rehearse due to Covid our bank balance at the end of both 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 was significantly higher than in previous years. Our current bank balance is now close to our pre-Covid level, however throughout 2022-2023 our monthly outgoings have exceeded our income.
Our biggest expenses during this period were our musical director fees (£3277.50) and hire of the EVI (£1778). Other key expenses during 20222023 include the purchase of new music (£479.29), subsidised Christmas meal (£200), our recent training day (£175) and van hire (£190). As stated above many of our members continued to pay throughout the various lockdowns and therefore the band subsidised the 2022 Christmas meal and did not charge members for the recent training day.
The only income generated by the band during this period other than our monthly membership fees has been £230 from our Christmas concert and £30 paid by non-members for the training day. Additionally, we have just received £150 from the Enderby band organisation. At the start of 2023 we increased our monthly membership rates for the first time since the wind band formed to try and ensure that going forward, the monthly income received from subs can cover our MD and room hire costs. Subs received during March 2023 have for the first time in a long time covered our monthly outgoings. Many thanks to all our members for increasing their regular monthly contributions.
Additionally, we are asking members who play in both the main band and the apprentice band to pay an increased amount and members playing in more than one of the organisation bands are being asked to pay the full membership rate rather than 50%.
For the band to continue to thrive and, avoid depleting our funds further our members need to commit to increasing our income through additional concerts/fund raising events.
The Enderby Wind Band wishes to thank all those (band members, committee, family, friends, etc.) who have helped to make the past year successful and looks forward to more developments in the coming year.

Enderby Band Organisation Treasurers Report
Once again he Organisations accounts started the year with a healthy balance which I knew would cover the annual costs for the year, wityh funds still in the account from the grant last year.
Income this year came from a donation from the Freemasons, a refund from the alarm company as we terminated the contract mid-year and a refund from BDC regarding the Lease.
This year the management committee decided we should change to another provider for the insurance. But the other annual costs have remained the same (BBE membership, PRS, Website hosting etc.
During the year the CAF Bank informed me that in order to continue with our savings account with them we would have to open a current account, which seemed senseless as we already have a current account, so I made the decision to close the account with them. The funds were transferred into the current account. I then opened a Reserve account linked to the current account and put the money into it so it didn’t get swallowed up in the everyday spending, also as there was a reasonable amount in the current account from previous years I transferred some of that as well so there is now just over £2000 in the current account, but going forward I am willing to suggest to the management that some of that money alone could be used to cover the bills until bands are back on their feet and we can return to each paying into the account to cover these.
I will as always continue on behalf of the Organisation check to see if I can source any funding to help in the future.
The Investment Bond with the United Trust Bank has shown a good return so has been reinvested for a further 12 months. My thanks as always go to the Trustees and management committee for their support during the past year. Elaine Cooke
