The Marsden Silver Band is looking for former players to help celebrate their 125th anniversary.

The Marsden Band is looking to see if they can contact as many former players as possible to help musically celebrate their 125th anniversary on the 28th June at the St. Bartholomews Church in Marsden.

Ideal opportunity

The band hopes the concert will provide the ideal opportunity to meet up with former players and get them to dust off their old instruments and have a blow in celebration.

A spokesperson told 4BR: "This is going to be a fabulous evening and opportunity for old friends to get together and make music."
