Prime Brass

A celebration of summer and music, Sounds Green takes place every Wednesday evening in July on the Garden’s Main Lawn, providing a perfect opportunity to embrace sights, sounds and summer scents in the Garden with family and friends on a (hopefully) warm, summer evening.

We’re delighted to welcome back Prime Brass to launch Sounds Green with a blast! Known for performances at the lighter end of the musical spectrum, this lively brass ensemble is sure to get people of all ages up and dancing!

🎵 Picnics are welcome. Food and drink will be provided by a variety of food trucks, Jack’s Gelato and The Garden Café.

🎵 Bring a rug or picnic chair and relax in beautiful surroundings to some stunning musical sounds!

🎵 Tickets available – see “Book” button above.

A group of eleven people dressed in black stands in a grand, ornate interior holding brass instruments. The setting features intricate stonework and arched designs.
Prime Brass will be returning to the Garden on 1 July as part of Sounds Green. Click for information
