Christmas 2012

 

The band had a busy Christmas period, playing a concert and Carols at various locations during December.

A Christmas Concert was held at the Addlestone Community Centre where we played (amongst others) The Snowman, HMS Pinafore, The Christmas Song and All I Want For Christmas Is You.

Carols were also played in Cobham High Street, Brooklands Shopping Centre in Weybridge and at All Saints Church in Ockham. The band collected money while playing carols and a proportion of it will be given our nominated charities, Woking Hospice and Blind in Business.

Jubilee Weekend

The band took part in the Jubilee weekend celebrations, playing at ‘picnic in the park’ in Merton on Sunday and ‘Jubilee Celebrations’ in Weybridge on Monday.  Despite the inclement weather there was a good sized audience, many of whom were waving flags and singing.

Due to Musical Director Robin Langdon being away on holiday, the band was conducted by David Ruel on Sunday and Jack Smith on Monday – a big thank-you to both. 

Amongst the music played were ‘Jerusalem’, ‘Land of Hope and Glory’ and, of course, ‘God Save the Queen’.
