see Derby's premier brass band live :
New Faces in the Derwent Brass Cornet Section

The band are delighted to welcome 2 new members onto our 'back-row' cornet section.

Neil Escott joins on 2nd cornet following the recent departure of long term member Alan Nelson who is taking a break from banding. Neil has just enjoyed a break from banding having had a 'year-out' after previously being the principle cornet of Riddings Band.

Neil is joined on 2nd cornet by Emma Davis. Emma was also a former member of Riddings band, and more recently a member of the Shirland Miners Welfare Band.

This is turning into quite a family affair, as Neil is married to our 3rd cornet player Susie Escott............... and flugel horn Pam Davis is Emma's mum!
