Below is more information on the band's cornet players.

Soprano Cornet - Rose Fisher

Rose Fisher was a member of the Royal Air Force and first became associated with the band during her posting at St Athan in 1992. After settling in Rhoose, she was tempted back into the Band whilst she played in a contest as a maternity cover and has been a member of the band ever since. She has a long brass band membership list which reflects her roots in Northampton Town and Moulton ’77, her Airforce days with RAF Benson and also she has played for the Vale of Glamorgan Band amongst other bands around South Wales and she continues to play for Barry Brass Band.
Taking up the cornet at the age of 11 because she loved the school band, she always wanted to play Soprano Cornet – but someone should have mentioned the seat’s precarious position usually very close to the edge of the stage – her most embarrassing moment was actually falling off stage mid performance! Her highlight as part of RAF St Athan Voluntary Band was playing at the National Finals although she secretly adores playing in bandstands in the park.
Her hobbies include her pet rabbits and bidding on eBay – which also counts for her other interest of picture framing when she won an auction after bidding on an item to see how it was done!
