Many congratulations to Su and Nick Hollick (first horn and percussionist respectively who welcomed their baby daughter Harriet Amelia into the world on 2nd January. Harriet weighed in at 7lb 5oz, and by all accounts her sudden arrival surprised even her parents!
Harriet is the third band baby to be born in the last 18 months - it seems we are on a bit of a roll!

The Hangleton Band is an active, modern, brass band based in Hangleton, on the outskirts of the city of Brighton and Hove, in Sussex, England, UK. We have both an active Senior and Youth Band and take our membership from a wide cross section of the local community. There are currently around 80 members, some of whom play in both bands, with a group of young learners constantly feeding into the Youth Band, which alone has 50 members
We are the only brass band in the City of Brighton and Hove with charitable status and operate as a single entity with all proceeds from fundraising, concerts and subscriptions being spent on the band, rather than being targeted at any individuals or sections. We have a large repertoire of music with anything from Mozart to Miller to Mercury!
Historically, the policy of the Hangleton Band is to provide an instrument and tuition for any child who wants to learn, giving them the opportunity to learn without the cost of having to buy an instrument (which can be very expensive, sometimes costing up to several thousand pounds!)
Many members of the Hangleton Senior Band give up their time and energies to teach the learners and help the youngsters in the Youth Band.
Youth players range from 8 year old beginners to 18 year old grade 8 musicians, while the Senior Band ranges from talented 13 year olds to an age when it is impolite to be specific!
The Hangleton Band is currently a SCABA (Southern Counties Amateur Bands Association) second section band and competes in the Third Section nationally (promoted 2002).
We play a range of concerts over the year for our own stalwart supporters, and for different audiences in the immediate locality and around the county.
