About

Bede Wind is a community wind band based at The Glasshouse International Centre for Music in Gateshead.

Originally based in Springfield School in Jarrow, it was formed in 1989 to allow pupils of the school to continue playing after leaving. It now attracts musicians from all across the north east of England.

We have performed at indoor and outdoor venues both home and abroad over the past three decades, including tours in the US and Europe.

Rehearsals

Bede Wind is the resident wind band of The Glasshouse. We rehearse downstairs in the Music Education Centre most Fridays (during school term time) from 7.15pm to 9pm.

The nearest Metro station is Gateshead, and frequent Quaylink Buses run between Gateshead Metro station and Newcastle’s Central Station and The Glasshouse.
