At the heart of the Brass Band is the working-class culture of brotherhood musicians, ambassadors of local communities and industries, and of fierce competitiveness. On both sides of the Atlantic there are competitions to crown the best Brass Band; the European Brass Band Association and the North American Brass Band Association hold such championships. For the 28 brass “banders" preparing for a title run, rehearsals can be intense and all-consuming, but the results are nothing shy of brilliant.

On this episode of Wind & Rhtythm, we explore the music and magnificence of the Brass Band.
