Wind Repertoire - Brahms Academic Festival Overture

HOW TO GET INVOLVED

All students are welcome to sign-up for this exciting opportunity, regardless of experience – however, for the avoidance of doubt, these sessions are aimed at students who play BRASS, WIND, and PERCUSSION instruments.

In order to get involved, please sign-up by writing directly to the University Music team (universitymusichub@contacts.bham.ac.uk) with your name, instrument, and which session(s) you’d like to sign up for. You will be required to be print off your own music for these sessions (or use a tablet), with more details available as below.
