Until 2002, LGB Brass was known as the Glynde
and Beddingham Brass Band.
The band was formed
in 1922 by the station master at Glynde, the downland village
between Lewes and Glyndebourne opera house. It rehearsed in Glynde
Reading Room and all the original players came from the
village or nearby Beddingham. Click here to see pictures of the
founding members.
Over the years, the band attracted musicians
from the surrounding towns of Eastbourne, Lewes and Brighton.

To reflect the wider membership, we changed our
name in 2002 to Lewes, Glynde and Beddingham Brass - or LGB Brass.
At the same time, Lewes Town Council invited us to move our base
to the All Saints Arts Centre in Lewes.
We are now able to promote our own concerts in
the art centre's auditorium, as well as continue our popular
performances throughout East and West Sussex.
