Who Are We
Feilding Brass is an enlarged version of a standard British Brass Band. We typically play a band of 35-40 players whose ages range from 12 to 70. Our main objective is to have fun performing quality, entertaining music within our local community.
 The band's repertoire is quite large and includes a lot of modern/popular music along with major movie music and swing/jazz selections. Feilding Brass normally play about 100 different pieces each year including vocal features arranged especially for the band.
The band normally has about 15-20 gigs per year. We always attend the annual Regional Band championships and about once every 4-5 years the annual National Championships as time/finances allow.
