Brass is Back at Woodhorn Museum

On the 25th May 2018 Woodhorn Museum came alive to the sound of youth brass bands.  Over 400 children from across the Bedlington and Ashington school partnerships came together to celebrate the work that has taken place in their school during a three year brass regeneration project.

Through funding received from Youth Music, Music Partnership North has created 13 school based mini brass bands and through the life of the project students have received weekly tuition on cornets, trombones, baritones and tenor horns.  On the 25th May Woodhorn Museum have kindly opened their doors to the students, families and partners involved in this project, enabling everyone to come together to celebrate the students achievements and for the school brass bands to come together for the first time to play at an open air performance like no other.
