The concert is given by Kibworth Band under the baton of Iain himself and commences at 7.30pm.

Also included in the programme are other works by Iain; ‘Now is the Month of Maying’, a modern twist on the old English Madrigal, the cornet trio ‘Sea Breezes’, and a new bass trombone solo ‘Makin' Whoopee’, written for the band's Richard Orme.

The concert is part of a busy programme of events for the Leicestershire-based band who continue to be in demand whose highlight this year was playing for HM Queen when she visited Leicester Cathedral as part of her Jubilee Tour.
