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.

Martlesham Brass Publicity

Martlesham Brass starts the month with an appearance on the 2nd September at the annual Sutton Fayre. We then continue to get �In the Mood� for the Martlesham Heath Aviation Society event on the 23rd September where the band will be playing music �of the era� as part of their programme.
6th October ~ 5th Birthday Concert
Martlesham Brass will be celebrating its 5th Birthday with a concert on Saturday 6th October at 5.30pm. Tickets may be ordered in advance at the cost of £1. Entry on the door will be £1.50. Entry is free for all accompanied children under 16 years old. The concert is being held at the Martlesham Community Centre.

27th October ~ Preliminary Band �Tea and Tunes� Concert
This event is being held at St Michael�s Church Centre in the afternoon. The precise times will be published in next month�s issue. The concert is a chance for some of our younger, less experienced players to showcase their talent. In previous years this has been a delightfully informal event during which tea and cakes are consumed in great quantities, and not just by the players! Please come and join us for this enjoyable afternoon.

If you wish to order tickets for the Birthday Concert or you wish to join Martlesham Brass please phone our Band secretary, Liz Benyon on 01473 623276.

If you want information regarding the booking of the band for an event please contact our Bookings Secretary, Julie Clapson on 01473 620240.

Finally we would like to take this opportunity to say �Good Luck and best wishes� to those members of the band who are off to Universities and Colleges at the end of September.
