To anyone out there who is interested or may have an opinion!!!

I am currently studying for my Post Graduate Diploma in Architecture and
for my thesis I am proposing to design a National Brass Band Centre.

I have played cornet in Spennymoor Town Band for approximately 15 years 9  
of them as principal, so I do know a small amount about the movement.

The centre I propose would consist of the following:

A national competiton/concert venue.
Purpose designed rehearsal facilities.
Teaching facilities for individuals/ensembles/bands.
A library of music.
A museum/hall of fame.
A restaurant/bar.
Administrative accommodation for the bodies currently housed a Dean
Clough.
Specialised retail outlets
Etc...

It is my intention that this development would provide a focal point for
an existing disperate society, as well as, providing purpose built
accommodation which the movement generally does not have.

Hopefully the centre could also accommodate national/international summer
schools, concerts of national importance

Thanks in appreciation for your reply.
