Brilliant
Band MD, Dr Ian Tinsley told 4BR: "Lyndon Baglin rolled back the years with his performance playing ‘Rule Britannia’ and David Pogson was brilliant on his rendition of ‘Concierto de Aranjuez’."
He added: "Jayne Illingworth, our own solo euphonium gave a wonderful performance of ‘La Belle Americaine’ and the band received a standing ovation and were obliged to do two encores before we were allowed to leave the stage!"
