The Deputy Lady Mayoress and I were delighted to attend a concert last evening - 'Follow the band Part One' given by the City of Birmingham Brass Band. 
The concert was held at the nationally acclaimed Joseph Chamberlain Sixth Form College which is now, thanks to the Principal of the College, the Band's new home.

The band will not only be making music but also working with the college students and local community to develop new works relating fine art and music and involving students working on textiles in the design of a new logo and uniforms.
This all adds up to a great synergy and is typical of how both Joseph Chamberlain College and the City of Birmingham Brass Band work.
