The attraction of hearing the trio of Foden's, Brighouse & Rastrick and Cory have ensured that the 'Sold Out' signs will be on display at the forthcoming Elgar International Festival of Brass which takes place at Bromsgrove School on Sunday 16th June.
Delighted
Event organiser Carol Crompton told 4BR: "We are obviously delighted as it shows that there is a great demand to hear elite level bands giving showcase performances."
