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.

Summer Break

The band will be taking a break over the summer holidays. Final practice will be on the 29th of July with band starting again on the 2nd of September (just before the schools start back).

During this time, please ensure you keep your instrument in good working order. Give it a good clean (bath it in warm soapy water), and ensure the valves and slides are lubricated. It may also be wise to look at replacing springs and pads where appropriate. Speak to a bandleader if you are unsure what you should be doing.
