We struck lucky again with the weather for our performance at Whaley Wharf Weekend.
A mixed programme, ideal for a sunny afternoon, including a tribute to our Bass Trombone player,
Graham Robinson, who passed away in July.
As well as being an accomplished player, Graham was also an arranger of music, and it was a privilege to play his arrangement of Let There Be Peace On Earth. A bit of a break with tradition if truth be told: Graham's normal territory was Big Band/Jazz Band music, so a hymn tune was out of his normal comfort zone. But he more than rose to the challenge. Thank you, Graham, for your legacy to us of a very beautiful and moving peace of music.

Eighteen players on the stand today, all of whom are Whaley Bridge Band regulars. Thank you one and all.
