THE WARM sounds of brass will be ringing out over Abbey Park, Evesham with the return of a summer season of live alfresco performances.
Bands in the Park, sponsored by the town council, will see regular Sunday concerts performed at the bandstand, starting at the end of the month through to the end of August.
The season kicks off with Cubbington Silver Band on May 24 and finishes off with Evesham Town Band on August 23 (excluding June 21 and August 2).
Evesham’s very own Avonbank Brass under the musical direction of Micah Parsons will take to the stand on June 7, with Bretforton Silver Band – Worcestershire’s last village band – following closely on June 14.
Incoming mayor Councillor Bill Kimberley, said: “The town council is proud to present Bands in the Parks which showcases fantastic brass bands in a relaxed, welcoming setting.
“It gives residents and visitors the chance to enjoy live music right in the heart of the town and something that really adds to the character of Evesham over the summer months.”
The free concerts will run from 2.30pm to 4.30pm, with a 20-minute break half way through.
