If you fancy tooting the flute or beating the drum, come along and play with Da Capo Concert Band at their open rehearsal this Sunday.

Da Capo is a friendly, experienced community wind orchestra made up of woodwind, brass and percussion players from all over north London and Hertfordshire, and all such players are welcome to the open day. Grade six standard or equivalent is preferred but it’s not essential.

The open day will be led by the band’s musical director Jon Milne, bandmaster to the Band of the Coldstream Guards.

  • The open rehearsal is at St John The Baptist Church, Wood Street, Chipping Barnet on Saturday, September 15 from 10.30am to 5.30pm. Details: 07766 457929, www.dacapoconcertband.co.uk
