Pelorus Trust Wellington Brass Band

All the hard work paid off for the band when they won the Australian B-Grade on Easter Sunday, 23 March.

The Australian national contest was held in Brisbane this year and Pelorus Trust Wellington Brass was one of only two NZ bands, with Dalewool, to make the trip across the Tasman.

The band won the Hymn, Own Choice and Test sections and came second in the Stage March, producing an aggregate well clear of the second-placed band.

Pelorus Trust Wellington Brass Band now holds both the New Zealand and the Australian B-Grade titles. We're looking forward to defending our NZ title at the NZ Brass Band Contest - "Festival of Brass" in Christchurch this July (http://www.brassnz.co.nz/chchmain.html).
