One of our benchmark play outs for the 2019 season was always going to be the Matamata Festival. Let by our MD Te Reo Hughes, the band prepped hard and played an awesome repertoire for us to play:
Pieces included: Soul Bossanova, Wonderful World (featuring young soloist Walter Hughes), James Bond Theme Song, Buglers Holiday and Conquest of Paradise. This was a highly entertaining event for the band and audience alike. We were awarded a GOLD award, which was absolutely fantastic and gives us confidence for future events.
