If you were not in Barnetby Village Hall, Lincolnshire on Saturday 21st October 2017,
YOU HAVE MISSED IT.
“MISSED WHAT?”
A First Class concert featuring West Yorkshire Brass and Barnetby Silver Band.
Whilst they may not be known as First Class in official brass band circles, both bands know how to put on a First Class performance for an appreciative audience.
Please see our slideshow on the PHOTOS button.
The band’s intrepid photographer, Elizabeth Johnson, missed a fine performance by the band at Ripon Armed Forces Day on June 24th 2017, but made up for it the following day in Beaumont Park, Huddersfield where she demonstrated that her lens is quite capable of focussing on more than the band ….. ‘Nice to see you ladies, and thank you all for your constant support’
‘And you Elizabeth for your contributions.’
When the late Roy Newsome composed The Pateley Bridge March in 1995 to celebrate the Centenary of Pateley Bridge Show, he dedicated it to Frank Dean.
When West Yorkshire Brass played The Pateley Bridge March during their 2017 concert from the bandstand in Pateley Bridge, they didn’t expect to see Frank Dean in the audience.

On a visit to Morocco, West Yorkshire Brass Percussionist David Holdsworth recruited some new members for the percussion section ~ ‘NOT SURE ABOUT THE TUNICS, THOUGH’
