A Grand Night of Music

A 'Summer Proms' concert featuring Newstead Brass has raised £1,000 for the new Cystic Fibrosis Unit at the City Hospital, Nottingham.

It was a welcome return for the band to the annual event organised by the Hilltoppers Golf Society and held at Radcliffe-on-Trent Golf Club.  Concert attendees enjoyed their picnics to a fine selection of music by the band, featuring many of the bands soloist and compered  in his own inimitable style by Lynden Cooper.

The band's next appearances are with the Mansfield Palace Community Theatre in 'Brassed Off' at the Mansfield Palace Theatre from Thursday 4th to Saturday 6th July and in the Ripely Music Festival 'Brass Spectacular' with 'Firework Finale' at Crossley Park, Ripley from 7.30 pm on Saturday July 13th.
