Elevate - band information session

Join Sarah and Jess from the BBE team to hear all about our newest development scheme, 'Elevate'. This session will start with a presentation outlining the programme, and then will be open to questions from participants.

Elevate is a collaborative programme bringing together brass bands and artists to create and learn together across a nine-month partnership. We are seeking to pair brass bands looking to challenge their normal performance practice with artists who will help push their boundaries by exploring new ideas, genres and ways of performing in a collaborative partnership.

What do brass bands gain from taking part in the programme?

• A fee of £1,000 paid directly to bands participating in the programme after completion of the final project
• The opportunity to work with new artists 
• The opportunity to create and collaborate on an original creative output - a concert, digital project, collaborative performance or outreach project - it’s up to you!
• To work with the experienced events and marketing team at Brass Bands England to produce and promote your project
• The opportunity to be highlighted and showcased nationally in the banding sector
• The potential to grow your local and national audience
