| The youth band was formed
in 1995 following an advertisement in the local press for young
children wishing to learn brass instruments. Several children applied
to the advert and so it began.
The youth band has performed concerts at Halifax Civic Theatre along side the National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain, the House of Commons, The Winter Gardens, Blackpool and many more places. We also perform at charity events. In 2004 we produced our first CD Recording, "And All That Jazz". In April 2007, the band became the National Junior Brass Band Champions.
The youth band forms part of the Elland Silver Band organisation, which celebrated its 150th anniversary in 1999. Several players from the youth band are also now members of the Elland Silver Band and other bands across West Yorkshire. If you would like further information about our organisation please do not hesitate to contact our Secretary, Mrs Kathleen Harrison
