New leaders for municipal band

RINCON DE LA VICTORIA’S band has been taken over by two new leaders, the council’s culture department has announced.

Adrian Ruiz Sanchez and Jose Luis Perez Zambrana, both local musicians who spent time as band members in their early years, will be taking the band back to its origins and once again providing lessons to members and people wishing to join, Culture councillor Alina Caravaca has reported.

Rehearsals will still be at the public library from 8-9.30pm on Tuesdays and 9-10.30pm on Fridays, and lessons will be earlier on Friday evenings and on Saturday mornings.

Due to these changes the members of the band have decided to suspend a concert they were due to give this Saturday, November 21. Instead, they will be performing at the Town Hall on January 3 as part of local Christmas activities.

The band will, however, be playing as usual at Constitution celebrations early next month.
