The band was formed in Victorian times. Originally it was made up predominantly of estate workers from Osmaston Park and reputedly formed to provide music on the occasion of a visit by Queen Victoria. The band rehearsed for many years in the thatched Osmaston Village Hall. While Osmaston Hall was demolished in 1938, the band still plays in the park for special occasions - most recently for the late Queen's platinum jubilee celebrations.
