Tom Redmond presents performances from the Grimethorpe Colliery Band and the Cory Band at the 2016 Brass Band Festival at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester.
Tom Redmond presents performances from the Grimethorpe Colliery Band and the Cory Band at this year's Brass Band Festival at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester.
