Event weekends in 2023–2024
Between autumn 2023 and early spring 2024, the Brass Academy will organise a total of six event weekends. During these six weekends, new students will be selected to begin their studies at the Brass Academy in autumn 2024. It is not necessary for an applicant to attend all of the 2023-2024 events as the programme is very similar.
