  Yorkshire Brass has just notched up a century of broadcasts

David Hoyle's popular on-line Yorkshire Brass show recently reached a significant landmark.

The 100th programme was recently broadcast entitled 'A Bit More Yorkshire Brass' — with David thanking listeners and supporters through his Facebook page for their support for the weekly show that started up in May 2020 during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Worldwide

Over the 100 shows he has gained a worldwide audience, with congratulations on the achievement coming from as far afield as New Zealand and Germany.

As one fan said: "Your show has been a great source of inspiration for me as a musical director trying to find new tunes for the band."
