• Cumbria Youth Brass  is a youth brass band shaped by its young players.
•  
• It’s a movable feast, travelling around our huge county and giving players new musical experiences.
•  
• It’s a space where young brass players meet, develop skills and perform together while building confidence and connections with other young players.

Cumbria Youth Brass Band (CYBB)  is run together with Cumbria’s brass bands. With venues across the county and experienced conductors, the CYBB is open to all young brass players aged 7 – 17 with players of 18 to 21 very welcome to develop mentoring skills with the group.

• Players choose the music they like
• They helped design the uniform
• Sessions include breaks for socialising and getting to know one another
• The players have strong opinions about biscuits!
• Players of all abilities are welcomed to the band.

The band has two groups so players of different levels of experience can meet, develop skills and perform with their peers. After their own more challenging session, experienced players stay to support and inspire newer recruits.

Cumbria Youth Brass Band sessions are held in different parts of the huge county of Cumbria to ensure access is available to everyone. Players and their families have enjoyed visiting new places.

We ask for a small contribution to cover the cost of the venue, sheet music and conductors travel costs. Sessions are booked on line.

Drum and Brass is keen to support participation from as many young musicians as we can and run a fully inclusive opportunity.

To book, please follow Drum and Brass on Eventbrite. You will then get invitations to each session.
