And with that, the teaching year for 2025 is done! Great morning with the @ChirnsideSchool brass group, playing 2 pieces with some of them making their debut performance. 2 brass band concerts to go #brassatchristmas

[Stu Black @flugelboy1]

Massive well done to the brass group of @EarlstonPS today who made their debut performance at their end of term service today. It may have been jingle bells but for them to go from (I’m nervous) 2 mins before to (that was fun, can we do it again) after it I couldn’t ask for more

[Stu Black @flugelboy1]

And that’s a wrap (for the public school side of things anyway) brilliant morning with @ChirnsideSchool brass group performing 3 pieces for the school and parents. One of the kids having had 2 lessons prior. Schools out for summer! #instrumentalservice #makingmusic

[Stu Black @flugelboy1]

Brilliant afternoon with team brass of @StBoswellsPS and @lauderPS. Both have only been playing a year and they did their first performance so confidently. 2 more assemblies to go and that’s it! #sbcinstrumentalservice

Massive well done to team brass of @ColdstreamPS20 for their performance at their guards day celebrations this afternoon. A great way to end a fun year!

Superb concert at @EarlstonHigh tonight. Hugely talented kids to perform with (who all nailed it) great staff to work with and a busy audience. What more can you ask for

A lovely finish to the school year with @ChirnsideSchool amazing brass team at their leavers service. All played superbly well. First time the P6’s have performed infront of people. Was honoured to be asked to present the music award too to one of my wee trombonists. Happy hols

A really lovely day today first of all performing sunshine on Leith with the amazing musicians of @EarlstonHighSch before the brass team of @StBoswellsPS performed 2 pieces at their leavers assembly. Then We rounded of with the summer concert at Berwickshire High #musicinschool

[Stu Black @flugelboy1]

Great first night playing the band @berwickshirehigh’s production of Annie! These immensely talented kids were superb as always. A credit to all the hard work their teachers have put in with them. Looking forward to night 2 tomorrow. If you’re free come see the show for yourself

What an absolute privilege it was to be one of the judges at the Midlothian young musician event tonight. All the kids were a credit to their teachers! Great to see some of team Midlothian that I haven’t seen for ages too! Thanks for having me @MusicMidlothian

[Stu Black @flugelboy1]

Huge well done to the p7’s brass team of @ChirnsydePS who performed at their Easter service this morning. 2 pieces and a big improvement from Christmas even. Looking forward to seeing what we can do in the summer term along with the p6’s. Enjoy your holiday!
