4BR in Utrecht and Gateshead

4BR will be bringing you the action from the Dutch National Championship and the Brass in Concert Championship this weekend.

Friday, 13 November 2015

The 4BR team has packed its bags and headed in separate directions this weekend to bring you a taste of the action at two major contesting events.

Utrecht

4BR Editor Iwan Fox is in Utrecht for the Dutch National Championships and will bring live action comments from the Saturday competitions — including the Championship Section which will decide which band represents The Netherlands at the Europeans in Lille in 2016.

Gateshead

Meanwhile Malcolm Wood makes the trip to Gateshead to enjoy the weekend of music making at The Sage. He will bring you a taste of the entertainment action as it unfolds on the Sunday.

Hope you enjoy our thoughts on what promises to be two very exciting competitions.
