Foden's Band has said a musical thank you to some of their finest supporters at their recent annual Patrons Concert at Sandbach School.
The event gives the band a chance to show their appreciation of their loyal support by providing a free concert each February.
CD launch
As usual, the hall was packed with over 500 Patrons at an event which also saw the launch of their latest CD — appropriately entitled 'Patron's Choice IX'.
Under the direction of MD Michael Fowles, the audience was treated to items from the release, whilst there was a welcome return appearance by former Musical Director Prof Nicholas Childs.
He will lead Foden's at the North West Regional Championship in Blackpool this weekend, and gave the audience a preview of Philip Sparke's 'Cambridge Variations'.
