Hitchin Youth Band

Hitchin Band is a brass band with a tradition of nearly 150 years. But it has never had a Youth Band...until now!

Hitchin Youth Band - A great first year so far!

  • Two smashing concert performances at Christchuch, Hitchin
  • An impressive performance at Lectchmore Infants centenary summer fayre
  • A fun afternoon bowling in Stevenage (more fun for some than others - boo hoo!)
  • Collecting loads of sponsor money and taking part in Hitchin Band's annual 'sponsored blow'
  • Playing for the senior band and having to sit through a performance of their Area Test piece!
  • Wearing our new Hitchin Youth Band t.shirts - hurrah!
  • Raising money through Waitrose Community Matters scheme
  • Volunteer tutors visiting 9 local schools and performing to hundreds of youngsters, spreading the word about our fantastic band and encouraging children to have a go


  • Our biggest success: We are made up of a terrific group of hard working youngsters and volunteer tutors. Onward and upward! Keep up the good work!
