Cranleigh Coronation 'Big Lunch' 2024

The band was very proud to be part of this weekend of royal celebrations, playing for the Coronation Big Lunch party in Cranleigh - particularly because we had actual royalty in the audience! The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh were in Cranleigh to join in the celebrations and we managed to time the start of our concert just as they were passing by (with a rousing rendition of God Save the King). The sun was shining, and a great audience was appreciative of our programme, which included solos from Andy (flugel), Gordon (cornet) and Martin (euphonium).
