Euphonium star David Childs will be appearing on stage next month to help Sandhurst celebrate their centenary year.

100 not out

The band, formed in 1908 by local villagers and officers serving with the nearby Royal Military Academy, are putting on a gala concert on Saturday 5th July to mark the occasion.

Also joining the band will be the 50 strong Phoenix Choir and the Royal Marines Corps of Drums, all under the baton of Sandhurst MD Ian McElligott.

Great artists

Band Chairman Neil Jobes told 4BR:"The band is really excited about the prospect of performing with such great guest artists. We will have to be on top form to do David and the other guests justice, but all the players are confident of putting on a great show."
