The 2001 Winners:
Just in case you’ve forgotten there were over 150 different
brass band contests held at some time during 2001 and someone had
to win them. So here’s the list of all the winners. If we have
missed anyone out we apologise (and we couldn’t put all the
lower section winners at lots of contests due to the space - sorry)
– but it’s a pretty long list none the less.
If anyone knows who the champions of Sweden are we would be chuffed
if you let us know.
