Cornwall Youth Brass Band

Band Brest an Yowynkneth Kernow

Supporting Our Young Musicians

It is an expensive business running two four-day residential courses for the band, directed by eminent conductors, one at Christmas and one at Easter, to say nothing of the cost of music, percussion instruments and other essentials. We are therefore always grateful for donations to help us provide the best possible and most stimulating musical experiences we can for our young musicians.
