Musical Director

This position arises from the impending retirement of our founder and musical director Brian Humpherson MBE, in June 2026.

We are looking to appoint an individual who is able to maintain and extend the existing high standard of performance of the band; to help attract new players; and to assist our committee in raising the profile of the band within the local area.

Potential candidates should have wide experience of conducting Wind Bands, and be able to use this experience and their expert musical knowledge to guide and inspire our musicians during the rehearsal process.

The successful candidate will be expected to plan suitable programmes to challenge and develop the musicianship of our members. Concerts are usually devised on a theme or topic, and attention should be given to ensure audience appeal, whilst extending the musical experience of our members.

It is important that the successful candidate should exhibit a high level of communication skills when addressing band members and our audiences.

More information about the vacancy and the band can be found on our website www.lccb.org.uk. 

Please send expression of interest, together with a CV outlining your musical and conducting experience, to Ian Robinson – LCCB Chairman, via email to info@lccb.org.uk.

The deadline for applications is Friday 14th November 2025, with auditions/interviews held early in 2026.
