Our @BrassBandsEng conference is well under way at the City of London School #BBConf24

Great trip to Tebay this evening - some fantastic music making going on up there with T-Brass!

Still celebrating! 🥳 Congatulations to the other winning music teachers. 🙌 bbe.org.uk/news25092024-1…

Great to speak to Helen on the radio this morning. She said she’d celebrate by playing her trombone up and down the street 🎺🎼

@EmilyPrescott30 Shout from the rooftops that the arts should be valued in schools. Access to the arts which is equal to access to sports should be aimed for. Many of us are trying to do things at grass roots, but we can’t be nationwide like the old county music systems 😔
