+ Chepstow Community Big Band

'Founded by Band Administrator Brian Ellam in April 2012, Swingcopation is an opportunity for players of saxes, trumpets, trombones and rhythm instruments to come together and share the joy of the Big Band sound, from Swing Era standards through to current theme tunes ... Following the success of Wyedean School's Big Band - W.D.Forte! - we decided to open things up to others in the local community, including young and more experienced musicians, and meet regularly for longer rehearsals. So far we have gathered a varied group of students from several schools, and adults from all over South East Wales and South Gloucestershire.'
