Euphonium star David Childs will be
appearing on stage this month to
help Sandhurst celebrate their
centenary year. The band, formed in
1908 by local villagers and officers
serving with the nearby Royal
Military Academy, are putting on a
gala concert on Saturday 5th
July to mark the occasion.
Also
joining the band will be the 50
strong Phoenix Choir and the Royal
Marines Corps of Drums, all under
the baton of Sandhurst M.D. Ian
McElligott. Band Chairman Neil
Jobes said of the event to be held
at the 1200 seat Hexagon Theatre in
Reading:
The
band is really excited about the
prospect of performing on such a
large stage and with such great
guest artists. We will have to be
on top form to do David and the
other guests justice, but all the
players are confident of putting on
a great show.”
David
will be performing some of the
pieces he is well known for
including ‘Brillante’ and ‘The Hot
Canary’. Anyone wishing to attend
the event can purchase tickets at
£12 from the Hexagon Box Office on
0118 960 6060. |
