Welcome To The Shanklin Town Brass Band Web Site

Shanklin Town Brass Band was founded in 1993 and is based in Rylstone Chalet,
which can be found in Rylstone Gardens, Shanklin, on the Isle of Wight.

We have a Senior, Youth, Intermediate and a Community Band; the Senior and Youth Bands regularly give concerts locally in Shanklin and in other venues on the Island. 

We also run a dedicated Brass Academy on Saturday Mornings during term time, thus enabling musical education, particularly the playing of brass instruments which are notoriously expensive, to be accessible to as many people as possible.

Our Senior Band competes in the Fourth Section of the National Brass Band Championships and regularly competes at other contests.

The Intermediate Band is our training band for beginners of all ages and abilities.

The THIRD SECTION

This was more poignant as this was Malcolm's last contest as the band's conductor,
as he feels it is now time to hand over to a younger person.
