- On Saturday 29th March 2025 we had a training day! The Brook Street Band worked with our string and continuo players to put us through our paces, playing at 415 with baroque bows and working from continuo figured bass and facsimile editions. The energy and warmth, as well as their technical and historical expertise was quite an inspiration. They gave a concert in Ugborough church on the Sunday evening and the presented educational workshops to students from Ugborough Primary School and Ivybridge Community College on the Monday. We look forward to hosting them again next year!
