MUSICAL teenager Lucy Herd could probably form a band all by herself, given her proficiency with a number of different instruments.
The 17-year-old already plays the French horn, the bassoon, the double bassoon and the piano.
On top of that she also sings in the chapel choir of her school, Harrogate Ladies' College and regularly conducts a junior brass band.
And now she looks set for a musical career - having been selected for a career with the Royal Air Force Central band.
She has been invited to play with the band in Bournemouth and Dorchester this month as a trial and if all goes well, her future career could be settled - her only dilemma is which instrument to play.
The college's director of music, David Andrews, said: "Lucy is a very talented practical musician.
"She's set her heart on a musical career and so this is a good opportunity to show what she can do.
