Boscombe Band 125th Anniversary Celebrtions
Saturday and Sunday October 22nd/23rd 2011
boscombe band 125 This weekend will be the culmination of our 125th Anniversary celebrations. The weekend will be conducted by our special guest Colonel Robert Redhead together with his wife Gwenyth.

On the Saturday afternoon the Band will be marching from the Triangle at two thirty en route for the Pavilion where where they will be met by the Mayor of Bournemouth.

The evening concert will commence at seven thirty. The first half will be a 'traditional' concert by the Band, but the second half will be something special!

The second half of this concert will feature performances by a 'massed' band. An invitation is extended to all former/retired bandsmen/bandswomen of Boscombe Band to participate in this. We would also be pleased to welcome anyone who was a bandsman/bandswoman at other Corps and who now soldiers here at Boscombe (even if you have not played with our Band before). There will be a short rehearsal on the Saturday Afternoon at approximately 4pm following the civic reception and tea will be provided for those involved so that there is some time to socialise prior to the concert.

If you are interested in participating in this please give your name and what instrument/part you play to either John Meredith or David Wilkinson.

On the Sunday the meetings - again led by our guests and featuring the band - will be at 10.45am and 4pm
