Mnozil Brass
 

4BR brings you another chance to win a great prize — with two tickets to see the amazing Mnozil Brass in concert on their UK tour — up to six times!

Great response

We had yet another great response to our Friday quiz as people made sure they got their entries in to bag a great quartet of CDs.

The answer was the bore size of the Geneva Symphony cornet is 0.464”

So well done to Callum Bain who will be getting a nice bundle of CDs in the post.
