Windsor Brass

Michael Purtle

Michael Purtle has been playing trombone in Brisbane Excelsior Brass Band for a number of years during which time the band has won five A Grade Australian National Band Championships and two consecutive New Zealand A Grade titles. He has toured with the band to Japan, Hong Kong, England as well as the Solomon Islands and brings a world of expertise to Windsor Brass.

Michael is highly involved in community music as well as school music, believing that music is a life long skill and should be pursued after students leave school. He is also the music co-ordinator of Park Ridge State High School, a rapidly rising musical school.
