The Band was honoured to be invited to participate in this service of thanks to all the organisations and individuals who helped to avert disaster when the dam was damaged in the summer.
Not only was the church full to capacity, but there was live streaming in the upstairs hall and on WB website, and the audience included many local VIPs. No pressure then!

After a short selection of pieces while the guests assembled, we accompanied the hymn and the National Anthem (two verses!) during the service. And as a grand finale afterwards, the first public performance for decades of The Whaley Bridge March, which went down very well. And good experience in preparation for next Sunday's fundraising concert when it will feature once again.
Many thanks to John for helping us out on euphonium.
