Nicóla Shaw

As the Flugehorn player of the world renowned WFEL Fairey Brass Band, Nicóla is known as a performer who is pushing all the boundaries of what a flugelhorn soloist can achieve. Through  new advanced repertoire, she has already made her mark broadening the perception of a flugelhorn and truly believes the new Adam’s F3 is the perfect instrument to enhance this journey, whilst blending the need for a rich traditional Brass Band sound. Last year in 2021, she won both the Open Slow Melody and Air Varie categories of the South West Solo contest performing a piece arranged for tuba (pedal tones included!)
