International Tattoo

Just the four places remain in the double brass band that will be featured alongside His Majesty The King's Guard Band of Norway, Heeresmusikkorps Ulm of Germany, Hemvärnets Musikkår Eslöv of Sweden and 100 Canadian Forces Musicians in the massed band of 400 that will lead this year's Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo.

Fantastic
