Hello, we are Phoenix Brass Band
Phoenix Brass is a community Band providing entertainment for audiences and its members. The Band prides itself on its friendliness and enthusiasm and caters for all ages and standards of musician. Our current players range from 9 years to 80+ years. Everyone shares the one common goal, that of making music with likeminded people.
The Band provides facilities for brass players to participate in musical activities of many types and at the same time gives musical interest and entertainment to the public. We encourage appreciation and participation in music as a whole whilst providing educational and training facilities for people of all ages to learn to play a brass instrument as members of a group. The Band also uses its musical abilities to assist other organisations, charities and communities to achieve their goals.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we are not able to rehearse or perform concerts together as a Band at the moment.
We continue to follow all the Government guidelines and advice from Brass Band England to keep our band members safe and are keeping a close eye on the regulations around the return to playing music.
