Richard Field, Head of Brass, Woodwind & Percussion at City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council, told 4BR: "This will be a fantastic opportunity for children to be tutored by players of one of the world's finest bands.

We also hope to invite parents to hear a sharing of the work achieved together from 7.00pm followed by a short concert."

The afternoon will see the youngsters split into two bands; one for players of beginner level to Grade 2 standard, and the other for Grade 3 and above.
