Connaught Brass

Many will remember the brilliantly virtuosic and entertaining coffee concert presented by Connaught Brass in 2022, so we welcome them back for an evening concert.

Brass quintets are so versatile, able to span repertoire from baroque to jazz to specially commissioned music.

Sit back and enjoy the sound of brass in the wonderful acoustic of St Mary’s.

We are also thrilled that over 2 days they are will be demonstrating their skills and enthusiasm for music to children from 8 local schools.
