There are around just 70 seats left to grab for this year's 47th Brass in Concert Championship at The Glasshouse International Centre for Music in Gateshead on Saturday 16th November.
Kick off
The action kicks off at 11.00am with the first of the 11 competitors looking to lift the Yamaha Newsome Trophy and £4,000 first prize.
To do that they must impress Quality of Performance judges Rieks van der Velde and Prof. Uwe Köller, Andrea Price (Programme Content) and Chris King and Al Booth (Entertainment and Presentation). The separate solo and individual awards will be judged by Dr Stephen Cobb.
