The death of Marty Wilson

We were deeply shocked and saddened to hear of Marty Wilson’s passing. Like so many musicians and friends, we are mourning the loss of a truly remarkable character.

We were fortunate to welcome Marty to Downshire Brass shortly after his retirement from the Ulster Orchestra, and his wealth of experience, skill, and expertise was immediately recognized and valued by everyone in the band.

All the members of Downshire want to extend their sympathies to his wife, Gillian, and the wider family circle at this very sad time.
