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.

Many thanks to everyone who attended, organised and helped out at our summer fayre, the weather could have been kinder but we still managed to raise a fantastic £641!

Uniform

All the bands have voted and most members are happy with the new proposal (which is absolutely optional).
Female members of the band of high school age and above, could (if they wish), wear a smart white open neck blouse for concerts, rather than a shirt and tie/bowtie.
