Magnificent and varied scenery

Derbyshire is home to the Peak District National Park, which spans some of England’s most magnificent and varied scenery. There’s so much to see in the Park, from the gorgeous valley and stepping stones at Dovedale, the lovely little town of Bakewell, famous for its cherry and almond-flavoured cake, the exquisite Chatsworth House set amongst magnificent landscaped parkland, to the highest point in the Peak District, Kinder Scout.

Concerts

Derbyshire is home to much music-making and many ensembles and, in particular, this region is firmly routed in the brass band tradition. There’s so much interest in attending concerts, and there are a great many venues of all types from which to choose. Where possible, we’ll try to combine your concert with that of a local group.

FAQs

Find the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.

You should book your tour between 8-18 months in advance. This will give us time to find the best possible venues for your tour and you will have ample time for fundraising should you need to do so.

We understand that when you go on a music tour where you stay is really important. All hotels and hostels we use are suitable for music ensembles with many offering rehearsal space and instrument storage. Rooms generally en-suite.

We accept any group as long as they are used to performing together as an ensemble, even if only to their fellow students and parents. We always ask for a recent recording of your group and we have range of venues on offer that will welcome beginner groups as well as experienced ensembles.
