On the 20th of October 2019 Hamilton City Brass A Grade band put on a performance to remember. Led by the inspirational Musical Director Glenn Richards, the band wowed the audience with a variety of entertaining pieces including:
- Singalong tunes from popular Disney Films such as "A Friend like me" from Aladdin, and "Let it Go" (arranged by Philip Harper) from the Frozen movie.
- Some toe tapping dancers on the big screen frolicked while the band played "Sing Sing Sing."
- The Hamilton City Auxiliary Band's MD Te Reo Hughes played a beautiful rendition of "A Time for Peace" by Peter Graham.
- A solo by Todd Smith on Soprano gave an outstanding performance of Live and Let Die by Paul McCartney, (arrangement by Ray Farr)
- A beautiful duet played by Emma Redpath and Mason Elliott of I'll Not Turn Back by Ivor Bosnia.
- A solo performance by Ross McAdam was delightful as he played Harlequin by Phillip Sparke.
- John Williams Epic Themes by Steve Sykes this was written as a tribute to John Williams (the composer of many of Stephen Spielberg's films)
- The relaxing Lux Arumque by Eric Whitacre
- Vitae Aeternum by Paul Lovette Cooper
- Simoraine by Clive Barraclough
