NZ Secondary Schools Brass Band in concert!

From October 20th, the National Secondary Schools Brass Band will meet at Nelson's Teapot Valley Camp for a week of music making, culminating in a concert at Nelson's Theatre Royal on Monday 24th October at 7.30.

Conducted by Musical Director Nick Sharpe, the concert will feature a wide variety of music both old and new, with an appearance by iconic New Zealand composer John Rimmer conducting his own piece Riffs 'n' Ructions, composed with the assistance of the SOUNZ Community composition grant for the Nelson Brass Academy. Following the concert, small groups from the band will give live music experiences to 21 Primary and Intermediate schools in the Nelson/Tasman region before heading home for a well earned rest!
