There is a rare chance to enjoy a live brass band concert on Thursday morning (7.00am GMT 21st January), when the National Youth Brass Band of New Zealand will be performing in Hamilton.
The band has been holding its annual course this week and will be livestreaming the concert.
Very lucky
Speaking to 4BR, Emily Richards, Manager of the National Youth Brass Band said: We are very lucky here in New Zealand to be able to live a relatively normal brass banding life.
Despite the disruption of the last year, or maybe because of it, the band has come to the course very well prepared for a challenging programme which is entitled, Ka mua, ka muri: Walking backwards into the future .
