All Bands Concert
A busy week for our bands started last Saturday 18th May 2024, when every ensemble in our organisation came together at The Place Theatre for our annual All Bands Concert.
Each band played very well, but it was particularly nice to see the great progress that our young musicians are making in our academy.
