The free event is supported by Besson and Courtois, with Dave Beal, Sales Executive of the Band Supplies (Leeds) branch telling 4BR:

"The event has already been profiled in the April edition of Brass Band World and we hope that this is the first in a long line of regular concerts showcasing the highest calibre of instrumental talent."

Inspire and enthuse

He added: "We are sure that the event on Saturday June 15th, will inspire, enthuse and bring people of all ages together in this fabulous new venue, which also has a bar for socialising!"
