25/02/07 Concert Thornton Little Theatre
Tonight’s concert was again well received by the audience. With music varying from traditional marches, Disney theme tunes, and a bit of Gilbert and Sullivan there was something to suit everyone’s taste. Solos came from Nicola Swann – Solo Horn (On my Own from Les Miserables) and Steve Tarry – Principal Cornet (Sugar Blues) with both players giving a fab performance. As usual, thanks from the band to all our guest players this evening both new and old. The next (18th March) and future concerts will see a new musical director at the helm – keep your eye on the website as more info to come very soon.
