SUMMARY:Brighouse and Rastrick Band
DESCRIPTION:3pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegarded by many as the best and most consistent ‘public subscription band’ in the world\, the fabled brass band presents a highly entertaining concert suitable for both the general public and brass band connoisseur. \nThe ever-popular Brighouse & Rastrick Band boast a formidable reputation: in its time the majority of premier band championships have been held by ‘Briggus’\, most recently becoming the 2022 British Open and Brass in Concert Champions. \nThey caught the ears and imagination of the British public in 1977 with their recording of The Floral Dance\, holding the No.2 position in the British singles chart for 9 weeks. Even though they were held off the top spot by Paul McCartney\, they still achieved sales of over a million copies\, earning both Gold and Silver discs. The Floral Dance has now become a permanent feature of the band’s programs as the ‘unofficial’ encore. \nOver recent years the band has been engaged in a number of very successful music collaborations outside the brass band tradition\, including Kate Rusby\, BBC Radio 2 Folk Award winner The Unthanks and classical actor Simon Callow. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility Information: \n\n\n\n\nWheelchair access \nFollowing recent improvements to the stalls seating area\, we now offer easier access and better viewing locations for wheelchair users. So you can be assured of a comfortable and enjoyable experience\, we have level access to the stalls from Commercial Street and provide two accessible toilets on the stalls level. \n  \nHearing Impaired \nThe Victoria Theatre has an induction loop for hearing aid users in the auditorium and Box Office.\nAdditionally the Victoria Theatre now offers an infra-red audio system allowing customers in the Stalls and The Circle and to individually adjust the volume of the performance. \n  \nVisual Impairments \nWe now offer versions of our seasonal brochure in large print. Please contact the box office to request copies to be sent to you.\nGuide dogs are welcome and we will be pleased to provide a bowl of water on request. \n  \nComplimentary tickets\nWe are pleased to offer a complimentary ticket to essential carers of people with additional needs.
