The ensemble of young players will give the premiere of Alan Fernie's latest work, entitled, 'Four Seasons', which has been written specially for the occasion.

Be a part

Speaking about the exciting opportunity, RNCM tutor Helen Varley told 4BR: "We want to gather as many young tenor horn, baritone, euphonium, trombone and tuba players as possible, so please do sign up for this terrific event!

We always have lots of fun, and it's a super way for young players to get a taste of what it's like to study at the RNCM and to be part of the most important showcase international brass band event in the UK."
