An open invitation has been made by the cooperation Youth Brass Band for young players to join them in their series of rehearsal days in the first half of 2025.

Great opportunity

A spokesperson told 4BR: "We offer a warm and inclusive welcome to everyone. These rehearsal and tuition events provide a great opportunity for young brass musicians to develop their skills, connect with others, and enjoy the thrill of making music together under the guidance of expert tutors."
