Advert: Foden's release new DVD

A fantastic DVD of Foden's memorable Manchester Cathedral concert has now been released.

Fodens in action
 

Following their acclaimed self promotional concert at Manchester Cathedral last November featuring Foden’s, Foden’s Youth, trumpet star Jens Lindemann, as well as the combined 100 voices of Sandbach Voices and the Uttoxeter Choral Society, Foden’s Band has announced that the concert was recorded as a live DVD which has now been released for sale.

Special

Foden’s Chairman John Barber told 4BR: "When we first discussed the idea of the concert and the various guests who would be featured, we knew this would be a very special and memorable event.

The concert featured a new arrangement of Faure's ‘Requiem’ by Dr Meechan as well as his very emotional composition ‘Epitath for Hillsborough’, which was performed on remembrance Sunday with representation for the Hillsborough trust present."

John added: "Jens Lindemann, Foden’s and Foden’s Youth are all on great form providing a varied programme that we hope will appeal to all tastes.”
