Dave Charles – Musical Director

In May members of Castleton Brass, welcomed Dave Charles as our  new Musical Director.

Dave was born into a traditional Salvation Army family where the expectation was to play a brass instrument. That meant cornet but the trombone was always Dave’s first love.

Dave continued his trombone studies in his Bachelor of Music degree at Cardiff University. A PGCE in Music followed specialising in secondary education.

Dave plays trombone in many local ensembles and he is looking forward to developing his brass band conducting career with Castleton Brass.
