My younger daughter started on the cornet last October, Tom, under Andy Oliver's tuition. They call the band "Andy's Army" (personally I think Oliver's Army would be better). She was playing last night, so my wife and I went along. It was a great night with some tremendous playing.
No doubt an old friend of your own, Mr Gordon Evans, made a special appearance and conducted on a couple of pieces.
The Kintyre School's pipe band were there as well, and did a set of their own, as well as playing with the brass band.
CGS choir performed as well---some voices those youngsters have.
I would say that it was a resounding success.
