🎶 A productive day for our flutes and clarinets! 🎶

Today, they spent some time with Dave Whittle brushing up on their musical skills and getting ready for our Christmas concert🎄

Dave is a hugely talented musician with a wealth of knowledge to share, and he’s also the man behind these incredible photos from our summer concert in Belper! 📸

A big thank you to Dave for sharing his time and expertise with us! 👏🎵

🎄🎶 Christmas is coming to DHB! 🎶🎄

Our social media guru has finally returned after a few weeks away and is slowly attempting to get back to reality… meanwhile, the band has already jumped into Christmas music rehearsals! 😂

So, we want to hear from you!

What are your favourite Christmas carols, and which ones would you love to hear Derby Hospitals Band perform later this year?

🎵 Drop your suggestions in the comments! 🎵

You never know… we might just take one (or more!) of your suggestions! 👀🎄

What a fantastic day we had yesterday! 🎶

It was a real pleasure to perform at Belper Gardens and see so many people enjoying the beautiful park. Thank you to everyone who stopped to listen and support us!

We're also incredibly grateful to Dave Whittle, who came along and captured some brilliant photos of the band. Here are just a few of our favourites for now... keep an eye on our page as we'll be sharing more over the coming weeks. 📸

Thank you, Dave!

What a lovely day celebrating our band's 15th anniversary. We have been through so much over the years, but it was great to come together, friends old and new, to celebrate the amazing work DHB has completed over the years.
Heres to another 15 years and many more!

Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make today special -

Raff's Ices for attending us so we can have a lovely treat

Abis Inflatables for the bouncy castle

Flamingo Glass and Mosaic Art for a calming crafting station

And of course the committee, for all they have done!
