Foden's and ISB

Foden's Band will be at Regent Hall on Friday evening (4th October) to provide their traditional pre-contest mix of concert items and a test-piece preview under the baton of Russell Gray.

It has now been announced that the International Staff Band of the Salvation Army will be in concert at the Royal Academy of Music on the same evening starting at 7.45pm.

Led by Bandmaster Dr Stephen Cobb (who is also adjudicating the following day) it will feature soloists David Childs, Philip Cobb and Charlie Green in a wide ranging programme of the Scottish composer's music.
