The band spent the majority of the year working towards our concert at St. Matthew’s Church in October, supported by Naseby Village Band.
Our concert featured solo pieces from Donna Rowan Gold on Oboe, David Farrow on Horn and guest vocalist Hélène Waters as well as a wide variety of film score, military and classical pieces.
This year Nene Valley Community Band were invited to play at the the Milton Keynes City of Lights Festival in Cambpell Park. We provided the warm-up to the lights procession, final concert and drone display.
