A recent article in the December 2019 edition of “Whitton Ways”, the Whitton Team Benefice magazine that covers news from around the local villages in Wiltshire, featured David Watson, Musical Director, Phoenix Brass Band. We thank Vanya Body, Editor, who has kindly shared the article and allowed us to publish it on the Band Website .
“What links WW2, brass bands, the Salvation Army, and British Rail? The answer is Mr David Watson, Musical Director for Phoenix Brass Band”.
“The Phoenix band rehearses in Froxfield’s Village Hall where David sat down with me to talk about the thread of music that runs through his long life”.
