Napier Tech Band warms up for its next concert.
With most families in lockdown this year, Mother's Day may have been downplayed — but not forgotten.
The Napier Tech Memorial Band will be playing it up and remembering mums in a belated Mother's Day concert in a few weeks.
The programme has a rousing start with Entry of the
Gladiators and includes I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables, Irving Berlin: The Early Years and the foot-tapping, thigh-slapping Hootenanny, finishing with a tribute to Glenn Miller with King of Swing, says Napier Tech Band co-chair Teresa Cuthbert.
"This concert also features items from the growing junior band and a trumpet duet from two of the Tech Band's more experienced musicians."
Teresa says the junior band numbers are increasing and now feature saxophones, a clarinet, flutes, trumpets and percussion.
