CHRISTCHURCH & HIGHCLIFFE BAND
Over 110 years of music making
We are a non contesting band of mixed abilities, all keen to support and encourage each other in our common aim to improve what we do and to provide the Christchurch area with a brass band to be proud of.
The music we play is very varied. You can expect to play traditional brass band marches, past contest pieces, music from the shows and film scores spanning a variety of genres from classical to swing. Something for everyone to enjoy.
We like to challenge ourselves with some of the pieces we play, but all in a very supportive and encouraging environment. In short, we are a social band, that is going through a period of change and is looking to expand our membership, improve our playing and provide a high quality brass band for the local area to enjoy.Do get in touch via our contact page.
If you’re interested in joining us, why not come along to one of our rehearsals on Wednesday nights where you'd be met with a warm welcome. We’d be delighted to hear from you!
We welcome enquiries to all sections of the band.
