Sunday Bandstand 6 December 2020

Hello Brass Banders - Having played our way through just some of the brass band repertoire of the 1950s, 60s,70s and 1980s we now arrive at the 1990s. Many of the pieces played in this show were recorded in the 90s and are still being played regularly today.
Being the first show in December we introduce a taste of Christmas music with more to come the nearer we get to the festive season.
If you have a favourite piece of Christmas music or Carol please contact me on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and we should be able to play it for you.

Enjoy the show
