“From the town of Carmarthen in the heart of Carmarthenshire, Wales, the Carmarthen Symphonic Wind Band regaled the Carlow crowd at an open air recital in front of Carlow College, St Patrick’s as part of the recent Pan Celtic Festival. There was something for everyone in the band’s repertoire. Between excerpts from …….”

A new beginning

Our first rehearsal of 2016 went off last night without a hitch. New music to get stuck into, and we have now begun planning for our 20th anniversary events. ‪#‎CSWB20‬

If you have any ideas for things we should be doing to celebrate then why not send us a message. Do you want the band to perform a concert for you? Perhaps you’d like to see us doing something more daring, a river concert (floating downstream on a barge) perhaps? Lots going on to celebrate – watch this space.

We hope to have a year filled with extra special treats for the band and you our public.

See you soon.

Ps. You can now follow us on twitter – @CarmarthenWind

Fancy Dress?

Well, our trip to Tenby in nautical costume seemed to go down a treat. People were at time literally dancing in the street, and our fancy dress caught their eye.

So now I ask you, would you like us to do it again? To brave the elements to entertain you with music and costumed themed to the occasion?

What should our next fancy dress be? Please message the band with any suggestions. We look Forward to hearing from you.

Gardener’s Question Time

Just to remind you folks that guys from BBC Radio 4 will be recording Gardener’s question time at the National Botanic Gardens of Wales this Sunday, 19th July. So if you are interested, and have a burning horticultural question at your heart, then why not pop on down to watch the show be recorded.

Oh, and the Carmarthen Symphonic Wind Band will be playing to entertain the masses in the Great Glasshouse. Even more reason to come and see.

See you there.
