| Easter Concert Review |
|
Easter Concert The band performed their now traditional Easter Concert at the Platform on Saturday night, receiving glowing reports from the packed audience. The programme included a number of beautifully played solos - Share My Yoke (Paul Woodhead - Prinipal Cornet), Dmitri (Carol Blaylock - Flugel Horn), The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (Jeff Cunningham - Solo Horn). Particularly moving for both band and audience alike was Pie Jesu, a duet showcasing the talents of both Carol Blaylock and Samantha Barbary (Soprano Cornet). Not usually noted for being a 'solo instrument' Colin Hendra gave his all performing Drummer's Delight with much gusto!! The event was being recorded as we are about to release a new CD - further details to follow...... Many thanks to all who helped make the event a great success - hope to see you all in a few weeks in Happy Mount Park when we kick off the 'Bands in the Park' season. (see Engagements section for details of upcoming events)
