Looking back to Hymn to the Fallen
Last November, Nene Valley Community Band, Open Stage Choir and guests from Abington Wind Band, Potterspury Big Band and Grafton District Scout Band recorded Hymn To The Fallen (theme from Saving Private Ryan) at St. Matthew’s Church. Here are some pictures from the day, taken by Andrew Ponting.
Hymn to the fallen
Nene Valley Community Band and Open Stage Choir are pleased to present this special recording of Hymn to the Fallen with guests from Abington Wind Band, Potterspury Big Band and Grafton District Scout Band.
Remembrance Day Recording
This Saturday, Nene Valley Community Band and the Open Stage Choir , along with additional musicians from Abington Wind Band will be making a special recording of Hymn to The Fallen, the theme from Saving Private Ryan.
We will be sharing the recorded video hopefully in time for Remembrance Sunday, watch this space!
Thank you to everyone who has spent the last 3 months working on this piece, it promises to be a very special occasion for us all.
NVCB Christmas Recording
It might still be November, but the band have been keeping themselves busy whilst we can’t meet, recording our own version of In The Bleak Midwinter, complete with Christmas outfits!
Thanks again to James Norden at Upbeat Image for putting it together, and Matt for remotely directing us.
Happy Christmas everyone.
NVCB record Lockdown tribute to NHS
As one of our own in the band works in the ICU at Northampton General Hospital, the band got together online to put together our cover of ‘What a Wonderful World’. Thanks to the help of James Norden at http://upbeatimage.co.uk we’ve been able to produce this very professional looking video, which has already featured in the Northampton Chronicle.
Thanks to all in the band and to James for putting this all together!
