This link SHOULD lead you to a youtube site with Mr. Sandman being performed by Brighouse and Rastrick Band in 2007. This will illustrate the point of entertainment value that is put on brass bands in competition. The Eastern Iowa Brass Band is working on this piece as of now, and will be performing it on our next concert, complete with soloists and solo parts in front of the band.

After some debate, I have decided to look at and research brass band instrumentation, along with exploring the reasoning behind such instrumentation in the ensemble. I have been a member of the Eastern Iowa Brass Band for the past 2 years, and have enjoyed learning about brass bands in general, but knew nothing about them beforehand. I would like to further my knowledge on ensemble construction, and how it originated and evolved.
