Thank you!

THANK YOU

Thank you! To everyone who made FTBBSS’26 what it was this year. We had an incredible time together with participants from all over Ireland and the UK, socialising, performing, and then learning from a fantastic tutor team, Garry Cutt, Dewi Griffiths, Tom Smith, Lucy Cutt, Owen Farr, Chris Robertson, Mick Marshall, Les Neish

To the participants who supported this year’s course and many before it, we hope you enjoyed your time with us. To the tutor team, my poor wife Wendy, who has to listen to me talk about this course every day of the year, my family, and Sarah Emerson, thank you.

To our sponsors, we are truly grateful for your financial support, instruments, prizes, gifts, music, and to you, the audience and everyone who supports us at each course and other events.
Also, a big thank you to the fantastic venue of Devenish College and the caretaker team, whose facilities have completely enhanced our event.

We are all knackered now, but make sure to save the date for our next event, Brassfest 2026, on Saturday 5th September. More info at FTBBSS.com.

If not, see you in 2027 for our 15th anniversary!
