Stowmarket Concert Band

The Stowmarket Concert Band was founded in 1962 and has just celebrated its 50th anniversary. There are two bands: the main band for more experienced players and training band that is for learners, beginners and some players returning to an instrument. Both band have a mix of adults and children performing together.
