Sunday Bandstand 20 March 2022

Hello Brass Banders - Another two-hours of music from the world of brass bands produced and presented by Chris Helme. We have some great bands from both overseas and home grown bands from here in the UK as well. As always we also have some fine soloists. I am sure we will have a few tracks which might be new music to some listeners and hopefully these will become new favourites. We have two great contest pieces from from 1956 and a relatively new one from 2014. Enjoy the show.
