Fresh from his award of a Doctorate (Ph.D.) from the University of Salford, Enfield Citadel Band Bandmaster Dr. Jonathan Corry will be the guest at this year's Central Music Institute held in Wisconsin in the United States.

During the 10 day music course, he will conduct, tutor, perform and introduce students to new works as well as those from the classic era of Salvation Army banding.

Looking forward
