The players had to work hard though, with a high standard shown by all bands, particularly Salisbury City, Marion City and Unley Concert Band. As well, a few inter-band “rivalries” added to the atmosphere in sections including EEb Tuba, Tenor horn and Euphonium.

The highlight of the day though, would have to be the K&N Quintet, made up of Kevin Joughin (Cornet) Mark Smith (Flugel), Katherine Staples (Tenor Horn) Dave McPhee (Trombone) and Andrew Theophilos (EEb Tuba) who blew the competition away with a spirited rendition of Amparita Rocca.

Adjudicated by Mr Bob Hower and Mr Bill Broughton, the competition was held at the Pembroke School in Adelaide. All from K&N agreed it was a great day, and special thanks must go to Tamra Renton for her fantastic accompanying, and to Bronwyn Dolman and the SABA Executive for running the event.
