Traditional Youth Marching Band Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Traditional Youth Marching Bands Association (TYMBA) is an organization related to marching bands in the UK.
It was formed in 1983 by a few like-minded friends who felt there was a need for an organisation to cater specifically for youth bands, which project a traditional British image and adopt a British Military style of drill.
[edit] Objectives
- To advance the education and training of young people and their leaders in all aspects of traditional banding.
- To stimulate public awareness, appreciation and enjoyment of traditional banding
- To bring together member bands and undertake the performance of marching band music for the enjoyment of the public
[edit] Organizational structure
TYMBA is run by its own members, who together, decide what they want from the association. A national committee is elected annually to manage the affairs of TYMBA. Our regional structure allows bands in each geographical region, South, Midlands and North, to meet regularly and feedback ideas and comments to the national committee through the regional meetings.
