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
'Making Music Fun in East Anglia'

Once again we had a most successful Christmas carolling season. We raised over £2000 we are donating the sum of £752.76 to each of the three local charities we supported this year! Thank you to all the players who shivered outside the supermarkets, to all the collectors who braved the cold, and to all the generous people who smiled as they dropped coins (and notes!) into our buckets.
You are invited to the Martlesham Brass Quiz Night on Saturday 5th February, 7pm at St Michael's Church Centre, Martlesham Heath. â��Nibblesâ�� will be provided, bring your own drinks (alcohol permitted). Teams of no more than 6 people - £2 per ticket (under 11's free), tickets from 07802 868924. All proceeds from the evening to go towards the band's tour to Watchet, Somerset in April.
Make sure you put Saturday 26th February in your diaries â�" our main band is presenting â��Our Presidentâ�� - a concert of music chosen by Bill Bell who is our inspirational band president. Bill is 97 and has chosen a varied and exciting mixture of pieces to illustrate his lifelong love of music. Tickets are £2.50 (children 11 and under free) from either 07802 868924 or online from www.martleshambrass.co.uk The concert is at St Michaelâ��s Church, Martlesham Heath and starts at 7pm.
