What a lovely evening we had playing with our friends Prudhoe Community Choir.
The evening got off to a rousing start with a joint rendition of Mr Blue Sky, one of our favourite tunes.
One of the highlights of the evening must be hearing our very talented Trombonist Ben Haslam playing the 2nd and 3rd movements of Concerto for Trombone and band by Rimsky-korsakov. Was an amazing performance played all from memory. It was tricky keeping up with him!
Ben is also the principal trombonist with the national Youth Orchestra and the Hallé Youth Orchestra and is destined to go far in his musical career. It was a privilege for the band to accompany him. Good luck Ben.
We ended the evening with a Grand Finale of ‘Selections from Mary Poppins’
Thanks to everyone who supported the concert, we are always keen to attract new players so come and joint us for more ‘musical mayhem’.
