Aussie instrumental wizard appointed Patron of the National Band Council of Australia
On behalf of the National Band Council of Australia I am pleased to announce James Morrison AM as patron of the National Band Council of Australia Inc.
James has established himself internationally as one of the most outstanding instrumentalists of our time.
His feats on trumpet, trombone, tuba, euphonium, saxophone, tenor horn and flugel horn are unrivalled and this has led to his idol status amongst players of all ages.
He has performed regularly with Brass and Concert Bands in Australia and overseas, making him an ideal figurehead for the National Band Council of Australia.
In accepting the appointment James said, “I would consider it an honour to serve as Patron of the National Band Council of Australia. I see community banding as the perfect opportunity for amateur musicians of all levels and ages to enjoy live music making at its very best”.
