As well as their huge catalogue of fantastic brass band music on display, the trade stand will also be fully stocked with every tune and carol you could wish for the festive season — including all the latest cracking pieces that will enhance every Christmas concert.

Alongside the sheet music will be the Wallace Mute collection, various accessories CDs and gift items perfect for Christmas too.
