Serenata | Lydbrook Band, Tom Brevik, Poland | 2019

Yvonne was a very special lady and friend to all of Lydbrook Band; as well as playing 2nd cornet, she was the bandroom janitor and looked after uniforms. She often took the trouble to chat to me after rehearsals of my music, something I really appreciated.

This is a recording performed on tour at the Kościół Mariacki, Katowice, Poland, 25/05/19, with photos gathered from concerts, rehearsals and events.

Serenata is written in memory and as a celebration of the life of Yvonne Hamblin [1944-2019], associated with Lydbrook Band for over 60 years.

Free sheet music download with flexible instrumentation - donations requested for British Heart Foundation. The music is suitable for all levels of band and has flexible instrumentation.

Recorded by Dave Jury for Dean Radio.
