In Memory of Duncan Beckley

Written by The National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain on September 29, 2025
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the death of Duncan Beckley, alumnus of The National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain.

A gifted musician, conductor, teacher and mentor, Duncan inspired generations of young players with his passion and encouragement. In more recent years he served as a Trustee of the organisation and as a guest conductor of The NYBBGB’s Children’s Band, continuing his lifelong commitment to supporting the next generation of musicians.

We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside him.
