The Cobham Band is delighted to announce that it has appointed Robin Langdon MMus BA (hons) as Musical Director.
Robin’s musical life began as a child, taking up euphonium at the age of nine. He eventually went on to study at The University of Southampton, specialising in performance and composition. After graduating he was awarded a bursary to continue his studies in composition and went on to complete a masters degree, focussing on music for brass and wind.
It was during his time at university that he had his first experience of conducting, taking the wind orchestra through one of his own compositions. He studied with professional conductor Robin Browning and became Musical Director for the University Brass Band. Since then his composing has given him the opportunity to conduct many other brass and wind bands.
As well as conducting, Robin is a composer, performer and teacher. He is currently teaching for Berkshire Maestros where he conducts several ensembles.
