I became musical director at a local band in Hjørring - KFUM-spejdernes Brass Band when I was 18, and in 2½ years I won three contests with the band. When I started at the Academy I began playing the sop. Eb cornet with Århus Brass Band (Danish Champion Band at that time). In 2002 I was appointed musical director of The Silkeborg Blæserne Brass Band and we became 2nd at the Nationals (my first attempt). At the National contest in 2003 we played Bourgeois´ Concerto Grosso and came 2nd to Lyngby Tårbæk Brass Band, who came 5th in the Europeans 2004.. In 2005 I returned to Århus Brass Band as a conductor.
