Following on from three successful tours, the Riverland in 2015, Yorke
Peninsula in 2016 and this year’s tour of the Limestone Coast, the 2018
State Youth Brass Tour will be heading to Clare Valley for what promises to
be the best tour yet! We are staying at Bungaree Station where we will
rehearse for three days followed by three days of concerts at different
venues including Sevenhill Cellars, Mintaro Maze, Martindale Hall and St
Michael’s Church. Our final concert will be back at Bungaree Station.
ACCOMMODATION, CATERING & TRANSPORT
We will be ’camping’ in the Shearers Quarters, so bring your swags or a
sleeping bag and camp bed! We will have some down time during each day so you can relax and catch up with old friends and make new ones and there is a pool at Bungaree so bring your swimmers.

French horns will be required to transpose from E-flat. Trombones, tubas, euphoniums and baritones will be reading treble clef. Percussionists should be able to read music.
PERSONNEL
Supervisory staff all have the relevant Working with Children and First Aid as required for teaching in South Australia.
