Christmas Concert

The band was able to hold its annual Christmas concert on 19th December at St Nicholas’ Church in Alcester for the first time since 2019. A large, appreciative audience was treated to a mix of traditional concert fare with Jenny Richardson performing Christopher Bond’s Song of the Night Sky on cornet, seasonal music including Dan Price’s Angelicus and the obligatory community carols. The most improved player of the year award went to Jo Smith who moved to baritone from percussion when a change in rehearsal venue meant that it wasn’t feasible to have the timps at every rehearsal.
