About the band
Crystal Palace Band (CPB) is one of the few traditional Brass Bands remaining
in London. It consists of between twenty and thirty musicians and plays
at a variety of events, including open-air concerts at Royal Parks and
at the seaside, fetes, carol concerts, parades, brass band contests, parties
and indoor concerts. Performance fees are charged and depend on location,
time and number of players required. The band also plays and contests in
smaller groups of four to ten players.

We also have an active 'Progress' Band of over twenty players of all ages
and abilities. This training and development section is ideal for new and
returning players or those wanting to enjoy band playing without committing
to the standards and rehearsals of the main band. An ideal entry point
for those inspired to try their hand having seen the 2010 BBC programme
‘A Band for Britain.’
