25 year celebration

South Milford Brass are getting ready to celebrate their 25th anniversary.

 

South Milford Brass is celebrating its 25th Anniversary later next month.

The band was formed in November 1982 and was originally known as Hambleton Brass. Its name was changed to Asda Manufacturing for a time before being renamed South Milford Brass in 1992.

The band has had many highs and lows over the years but since the appointment of Musical Director, Richard Wilton, two and a half years ago South Milford Brass has gone from strength to strength.

Last year was a particularly successful one for the Band. After 7 years as an unregistered band they competed at the regional championship in Darlington4BR

Success

Last year was a particularly successful one for the Band. After 7 years as an unregistered band they competed at the regional championship in Darlington coming a creditable 5th place in the Fourth Section.

In November they were runners up in the Kippax Entertainment Contest and in November were runners up at the Malton Brass Competition, where they also won prizes for the Best March and the Best Euphonium.
