The free event is first in a series of new Trinity Laban instrument-specific days to encourage young musicians to engage with local ensemble opportunities, within their school or music hub or community brass bands.

A spokesperson told 4BR: "This event is free of charge to young brass players aged 11 and above. Participants will sit side-by-side with professionals and conservatoire students in activities tailored to their instrumental specialism and experience."

Participants will be take part in ensemble performance as well as hearing others perform.
