Welcome to Sussex Brass

I would like to personally welcome you to Sussex Brass Band. If you check out the History page of the web site you will see that the band has been in operation for a long time. You may well see some of the young members in the photos in the band today. See if you can spot anyone.

As a new member we hope you enjoy playing and have fun during your stay with us. The band is a charity band but does receive money from performances around the county. We do charge a subscription fee which cover the cost of the Music Director, Insurance and Liability, Maintenance of band instruments, new music, rehearsal room rent and general running costs. We also compete in either or both Hove and Folkstone competitions.

If you do not have an instrument, do not worry as we have a large selection available for loan.

As a new member could I please ask you to complete the application form and forward by e-mail to the secretary. If you are under 18 years of age, please ensure your parents complete the Next of Kin Form, sign and present to the secretary.
