ℹ️ About Blowsoc
Established in 1992, we are a music society for people who play Woodwind, Brass, Percussion, Double Bass, and Big Band Jazz. We are avid about getting people involved and playing music, so it really doesn’t matter if you last played clarinet in primary school or you have your diploma on trumpet — you are always welcome and will be able to find an ensemble suitable for you! And as well as music students, we welcome musicians of all academic disciplines. In fact, our current executive committee has Maths, Engineering, History and Politics Students on it.
Why not watch our 2020/21 introductory video from our 2020/21 President Ollie and Vice President Kyle!
