It was standing room only at the latest Shrewsbury Brass Band Charity Concert held at St Chads Church in Shrewsbury, where the band joined forces with Shrewsbury Male Voice Choir to raise over £2,400 for Muscular Dystrophy UK.

Easy listening

Performing to over 500 people the programme included 'Vienna Philharmonic Fanfare', 'Highland Cathedral', 'Feeling Good' and many more easy listening classics.

The band and choir, conducted by Steve Pritchard-Jones (above), rounded of the highly successful with 'Divine Brahma', 'Africa Trilogy', 'Morte Christe' and 'Pomp and Circumstance'.

It was a sell out concert and raising money for charity is part of our ethos. Since our formation in 2012 nearly £20,000 has been raised for local good causesBand Chairman, Phil Tyler
