The branch was formed in 1992, and has an average membership of 40 players, covering a wide range of age and experience. We meet monthly to enjoy playing ensemble, and attendance is commonly between 20 and 30 people. A wide variety of instruments is played, ranging from popular plastic to expensive wood, from contra bass to sopranino. We are a friendly group, always happy to welcome new members and visitors.
Music is provided from a comprehensive library, and is varied in style and complexity.
The formation of smaller groups to play one to a part in each other's homes is encouraged. We meet monthly, usually on the third Saturday, from 2.00 pm until 4.30 pm. The venue is Treyew County Primary School, in Truro. This is published regularly, updating branch activities, musical director's comments and plans, and matters of musical or general interest. We hosted the SRP Festival in April 1998 and intend to play our part in Society affairs at the National level.
