PROGRAMME The first half of the programme will be built around original works for brass band, including a number of works speciallycommissioned for major national and international events.

The second half of brass 'lollipops'will use transcriptions of pieces from other genres to show the versatility of the 21st Century Brass Band. Newstead Brass is one of the midland's leading and most versatile brass bands, performing throughout Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, the East Midlands.

It was the highest placed midlands band in the Championship section of the 2018 Bolsover Festival of Brass. It also has an impressive roll of contest prizes and awards as a championship section band from 2000 to 2018.
