Coronavirus 1st Whitstable Distancing Band 9th April 2020
The show (band) must go on so to continue practice we decided to play Firework by Katy Perry, arranged by Michael Brown. Each player recorded their part and our IT guru, Nick Bryant (Euphonium), 'stitched' it all together. For those of a nervous disposition please look away when our band secretary, David Hancock (Trombone), finishes playing. Well done band.
