Flugel Horn - Alison Tinsley

Alison began playing cornet when she was ten, joining the St. Helens Youth Brass Band a year later.  She gained a position in the National Youth Brass Band when she was sixteen, and became the band’s principal flugel when she was eighteen.  Alison's musical experience reached a high point in May 2007, when she went to see Girls Aloud!

Outside of banding, Alison works as a public sector accountant.  Don't ask her for tax advice though as she won't be able to help!!!
