World record attempt longest fanfare line at DCUK show
Thurrock Marching Brass in conjunction with the Marching Band Activity United Kingdom Facebook Page will be attempting a new world record for the longest fanfare line in history at the DCUK show on Sunday 7th September 2014.
It is hoped that 150 or more trumpet and cornet players from across the United Kingdom and from every type organisation will take part. The current world record stands at 91 players.
"The ability for all marching band people to get along with each other regardless of where they come from or who they may or may not be affiliated with remains incredibly strong in the United Kingdom", Thurrock Marching Brass Chairman Paul Morgan says. "We are thrilled to be able to assist in creating something for everyone not only to get involved with, but also, if we achieve the goal, to be telling their grandkids about for years to come."
Adding, the UK Marching Band Activity Facebook Page creator, John Butler comments: "This attempt is open to anyone, young or old, and as long as you can play a trumpet or cornet will be considered so please register your interest as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. This is one not to miss out on!"
