Cory Band announces that principal euphonium Matthew White
has left the band for personal reasons after 20 months in the seat.
Musical Director Philip Harper said: "Matthew
approached me after our CD recording session on Saturday and informed me that
he would be leaving the band with immediate effect for reasons personal to him.
His mind was entirely made up and so I had to accept his decision. We are sorry
to lose such a talented musician.
"Fortunately we have another superb player in Martyn
Patterson who has willingly agreed to step up from number two to the end chair
to cover our upcoming concerts over the next few weeks. This will give us a
good opportunity to assess our long-term options for filling what must be one
of the most fantastic euphonium positions in the world."
