Buddin' Brass is a great way for new brass and percussion players to take their first musical steps and to enjoy playing together with others in an ensemble. 

Learning to play a musical instrument is a very rewarding undertaking with the potential for great satisfaction from achieving a good standard. It is essential that throughout the learning process experienced and enthusiastic support is on hand to provide encouragement and help.

At Buddin' Brass, beginner lessons are provided in tuition workshops which cater for small groups of players with little or no experience. As experience and confidence grow, players quickly reach the point where they are ready to participate in the ensemble session where the emphasis is very much on the rehearsal and performance of more challenging arrangements. The Buddin' Brass players have their own schedule of events and public appearances. Get our latest leaflet.

 

 

 

One of the things you need when learning to play is obviously an instrument! At Royal Spa Brass we are very lucky to have a stock of good quality instruments which are available for loan. The tutors at Royal Spa Brass will be able to offer advice and guidance on choosing which instrument to learn. The majority of brass players begin on either the cornet or the trombone. Progression to one of the larger brass instruments, such as the horn, euphonium, or tuba may then follow at the appropriate time. Obviously, if a player has already made a start on a particular instrument, this makes the decision much easier. Percussion tuition is also available on a range of professional-standard instruments including timpani, tuned percussion and drum kit.
