About Us
The Durham University Brass Band is a vibrant society committed to showing the university the meaning of banding! Based in the music department, we rehearse weekly and put on regular concerts, perform for a variety of events and also participate in a national brass band competition. Except for certain positions, the band is non auditioning, promoting the ethos of inclusion and welcoming players of all abilities. We play a wide variety of music from traditional brass band marches and Proms style classics, to your favourite 90s hits, much of it written and arranged by our own players. We’re a friendly bunch of people and want everyone to get the most of the dubb experience: expect regular socials and the obligatory post-rehearsal drinks!
New for 2019 is the dubb Symphonic Ten-Piece, a high standard brass ensemble playing a wide range of music, from jazz to classical, show tunes to pop. The group typically comprises of trumpets, french horns, trombones and tubas.
