Performance in the Gallagher Theatre (shared with Hamilton City Brass and the Victorian Youth Brass Band)

We had a great time performing at the Gallagher performing Arts Centre at the University of Waikato.  This event was called "Tutti" which essentially acknowledged the three bands who performed: Hamilton Auxiliary, Victorian State Youth Brass Band, Hamilton City Brass. 

Thank you to Todd Smith for stepping up to take Hamilton Auxiliary Brass (as well as Hamilton City Brass) as we prepared for Regional Contest. We had a great time with you waving your magic wand in front of us.

Thank you to Richard Lummus for your spectacular photos of this momentous occasion.
