Grand effort by Brighouse

The lads from West Riding raise a nice wodge of money for Elland Silver.

Brighouse
 

Brighouse & Rastrick recently helped Elland Silver Band raise over £1,000 for their 'Building for Brass' project.

Entertaining

The concert saw Brighouse led by David King, present a very entertaining programme, whilst the musicians from Elland Senior Band and Youth Band also performed in the concert which raise funds towards the biudling of Elland's new bandroom.

We send our warmest thanks to Brighouse & Rastrick and Professor David King for supporting our fund raising effortsElland Silver Band

Thanks

The youth band, conducted by Samantha Harrison delighted the audience, as did the Senior outfit, whilst Brighouse showed everyone why they are regarded as one of the best bands in the world.

A spokesperson told 4BR: "We send our warmest thanks to Brighouse & Rastrick and Professor David King for supporting our fund raising efforts and we look forward to performing with them again in the future."
