Dunfermline's youthful help for heroes

The young players of Dunfermline Youth Brass have certainly done their bit for a wonderful cause.

Dunfermiline
 

Members of Dunfermline Youth Brass ensured they certainly did their bit for the charity ‘Help for Heroes’ at their recent concert in the Scottish town.

Favourites

The concert hosted by the local Melody Makers saw the band perform alongside line dancers, Scottish singers and the Melody Makers themselves.

The young players performed 20 minutes of their favourite music including, ‘My Heart Will Go On’ from ‘Titanic’, ‘Super Trouper’ by ABBA and ‘Batman!’ The performance was enthusiastically received by the audience who not only sang along, but even danced to ‘Lets Twist Again!’

Help

Thanks to their wonderful efforts, the band helped raise £551 for Help for Heroes.
