Established during the 1990s by brass innovator Howard Snell, the RNCM Brass Band has always been a flagship ensemble of the institution. Geographically the RNCM is ideally placed for brass band students and it boasts a teaching staff that includes David Thornton as Director of Brass Bands and the RNCM International Brass Band Festival, Roger Webster, Richard Marshall, Owen Farr, Katy Jones, Carol Jarvis, Leslie Neish, and Steven Mead. In 2014 the college appointed Prof. James Gourlay and Prof. David King as International Chairs in Brass Band Studies and they both work with the band students on a bi-annual basis. Other recent guest conductors include Nicholas Childs, Florent Didier, Russell Gray, Garry Cutt and Elgar Howarth.
