Haberdashers Elstree Symphonic Winds
Wind band Youth division
Bio
The Haberdashers Elstree Symphonic Winds are one of the senior ensembles from
of the Haberdashers Boys’ and Girls’ Schools, two leading independent day schools
sharing a campus in Elstree, Hertfordshire. With a reputation for academic and co
curricular excellence stretching back to 1690 when Haberdashers Boys’ School was
founded by the Worshipful Company of Haberdashers, both schools are known for
fostering high standards in music and the performing arts. The band brings together
the finest woodwind, brass, and percussion players from across the two schools.
Members rehearse weekly and perform a wide-ranging and ambitious repertoire,
from established symphonic works to contemporary concert pieces. They performs
regularly both in and beyond school, with recent appearances at prestigious venues
including St John’s Smith Square and the Barbican Centre. Its collaborative nature
reflects the schools’ shared commitment to musical excellence and provides a
platform for outstanding young musicians to develop ensemble skills at the highest
level. The band is directed by Alan Duguid, Head of Academic Music at
Haberdashers Boys School and an experienced conductor of wind and brass
ensembles. Under his direction, the group continues to grow in musical ambition,
artistry, and national profile.
