What we do

We aim to inspire audiences and young people across the UK and Europe with our enthusiasm for music making at the highest possible level.  Our members come from all walks of life and are driven by a desire to achieve an outstanding level of music making.  Many of our members develop life-long friendships during their time in Youth Brass 2000, developed through memories of their shared musical achievements.

Whilst our stated aim is primarily musical, it is also imperative that we have a great time in the process.  Our trips to contests and concerts around the UK, as well as the highlight of our year - the annual European Tour - offer unparalleled opportunities to socialise and make new friends.
