“We missed Five Star Brass when they first played at Sewerby Methodist Chapel. Thank goodness we didn’t miss them this time. Five exceptionally talented musicians gave an appreciative audience a varied programme ranging from John Williams to Duke Ellington via Gershwin, Saint-Saëns and Pachelbel et al. We had virtuoso solo performances from all five members of the quintet.”

Richard Brennan
"I just wanted to pass on our thanks to you and the group for what was a truly superb concert at Sewerby on Saturday evening.

I had so much positive and appreciative feedback at church yesterday morning. I know we were all thrilled with the music and your talents.

I really do hope you will be able to come again and I look forward to that very much.

Thank you again"
