Fairlop Brass are eagerly looking forward to welcoming many former players back, both in the audience and on stage, at their 40th Anniversary Concert this weekend.

Former players are travelling from as far as Lancashire to join in the
celebrations, with five former players planning to join the band on stage for the final three items, which will include a specially composed march by the bands President.
