Our Musical Director

Chris Groom has been the band's musical director since 1991, and has built on solid foundations to achieve the position the band currently enjoys. Chris is the son of Trevor Groom, renowned as one of the country's best Euphonium players. After leaving school, Chris joined the Scots Guards, when he trained at Kneller Hall and played French Horn for 6 years. On leaving the Guards, he spent 8 years with Championship Section Bands in Yorkshire. He then returned to the Midlands and joined the GUS Band, where he played Principal Horn for five years. Chris currently works as a peripetetic music teacher at Loughborough Grammar School, Loughborough University and Kimbolton School.
