Join Cold Ash Brass and Musical Director Ian Walshaw for a festival of British music. They will take you on a tour of the British Isles from Alloway to Llanelli, the Westmerlands across the Irish sea to Erin Shore. They’re delighted to be welcoming back the Choir and Brass Band from Whitelands Park Primary School who will join us for a rousing massed piece.
Formed in 1902, Foden’s Band has maintained its position as one of the world’s leading bands on and off the contest stage, and currently holds the record for the highest number of Area Contest wins with an unprecedented 27 North West Area titles. In 2023, the band became British Open Champion at Birmingham’s Symphony Hall and was crowned Brass in Concert Champion. In 2024, Foden’s Band completed a seven day tour of South Korea where its opening concert was broadcast on national TV.
