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.

Sponsorship

During 2013, the various bands of Martlesham Brass will be taking part in a wide variety of concerts and events. One of the most exciting will involve Owen Farr, horn soloist with the world famous Cory band.
To help us keep the costs associated with such events down to an absolute minimum, we would be interested in hearing from any individual, company or organisation that might be willing to
sponsor one of our soloists or concerts.
Please talk to one of the bandleaders if you are interested in helping us in this way.
Thank you.

The 49 club winners are:
Aldous family
Howard family

We currently have 5 numbers available, please help support the band and apply for a number from Jayne for 50p a week the odds are far better than the real lottery!

Tea and tunes 10th November 10.00am-12.00noon

This is a popular event for the whole family. Along with all the usual music there will be cakes for sale and craft stalls. It is hoped that the band could have a music book stall, so if you have unwanted music books to donate please bring them along to raise some money for the band.
