Frampton on Severn Silver Band
Looking forward to seeing you hearing us
Welcome to the website of Frampton on Severn Silver Band
We are a fourth section brass band based in the picturesque Gloucestershire village of Frampton on Severn.
Frampton is located 9 miles south west of Gloucester and is most easily found by looking for the horseshoe bend in the River Severn - that's where we are.
Please follow the links to find out more about us. If you would like to contact us, the details are at the bottom of the page.

Wise Words
"Brass bands are all very well in their place - outdoors and
several miles away."
Sir Thomas Beecham
Dictionary Corner
"Words from the Music Dictionary": (even our Bass Section
can read.....just not music!) HETEROPHONY (Gr) - literally 'different sounds' - i.e. two
or more performers playing different versions of the same melody
simultaneously. ...... so if you see "cornets in unison" - be
afraid; be very afraid!!
