New venture

A real great relaxing concert at a new Venue for the Band, Heath Hall Sports and Social. Watch this space for future concerts. Allerton Brass will be performing at Heath Hall again on 15 November for Remembrance Sunday.

Christmas Concert

A great night at the Capstone Theatre last night for a truly “Magic of Christmas” concert. Music programme was great and a fantastic start to the happy festive season.

Happy Birthday

It’s Allerton Brass’ 1st birthday (well almost!). What a great year it has been. The band has got a great core of players and still growing. Thank you to everyone who has supported us.

Summer Season

Looking back, we began the Season on Sunday 13th July at Bishop Eton Monastery gardens, opening the day’s Parish Celebrations with guest conductor Pete Smith (from our Bass Section).

Our next concert was at Botanic Gardens in Southport on Sunday 3rd August, where even the rain didn’t dampen our spirits as we were relocated to the Church next to the park.

Our final summer outing was a while in the making, as it was originally rained off on Monday 25th August and fortunately the organisers were able to reschedule for Sunday 21stSeptember.  The weather was kinder to us and it proved to be a lovely sunny day.  We had a great audience with some very positive comments.  We noted on our facebook page that an audience member Alan Cheseldine posted on our page with this comment:

“Excellent concert this afternoon…  Been to a few here and there this summer but this finished the summer with a great performance.  First time I have heard A B and it won’t be the last.”

At The Movie Success

Allerton Brass held their first Summer Concert last weekend at The Capstone Theatre in Shaw Street, Liverpool.  The Concert was in the film Spirit, featuring music from some of the Great Movies and Composers.  To add to the excitement, we presented some scenes from the films on the ‘Big Screen’ behind the band.

A great night was had by all, and some of the audience took the time to give us some great feedback:

“We would like to thank allerton brass for an absolutely wonderful evening we very much enjoyed the music with the  added film screen it was very well put together and we look forward to your next performance well done all allerton brass and all who helped and supported them.Good luck .”     Maria Kellett, Liverpool

“Really enjoyed the concert.  There was a great mix of music.  Nights In White Satin brought back some memories.”     Colette Nawrocki, Liverpool

“Brilliant Night. Hope you made lots of money.”   Andrew Lamb, Liverpool
