Making music fun in east anglia

It is with great sadness that we mark the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Martlesham Brass has always held her in great esteem and we will miss her dedication and constant care for us.
We have followed her example of making our organisation open and welcoming to all.

We look to the future when we can celebrate her life and that of our new sovereign, King Charles III.

Christmas Collection

This year it was decided that 75% of all funds raised over the Christmas period (this includes the proceeds from the Christmas concert, carolling and other Christmas events) would be donated to three local charities.

As a result of the band's hard work, and the generosity of the public, we managed to raise £2,400 carolling, with our final total pot coming to £3,320.

St Elizabeth Hospice, Suffolk School for Parents and The Restricted Growth Association will each receive a cheque for £830.

Martlesham Brass Christmas Party

After two failed attempts at organising the party due to the snow we have asked Ali the Magician to attend the summer fayre to entertain us then, hopefully she won't be snowed off in June!
