Napier Tech Band musical director Teresa Cuthbert is urging people to go along and join the Napier Technical Memorial Band and Junior Band for an enjoyable afternoon of music on Sunday, October 2, at the Salvation Army Citadel in Greenmeadows.
"The afternoon concert has something for everyone, with musical
tributes to 'Satchmo' Louis Armstrong, one of the most influential figures in jazz, and Dame Vera Lynn CH DBE OStJ, the Forces' sweetheart, sung by special guest star, Lyn Fry, and ending with a rousing tribute celebrating the life of the late Queen Elizabeth II."
Teresa says the audience is invited to bring along flags and get decked out in their reds, whites and blues for this Proms-style finale.
"The Junior Band will delight the audience with the sea ballad Wellerman, which went viral last year on Tiktok. The audience will be humming along to the energetic refrain from Edvard Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King, heard in many popular movies."
