Good camera work. The band on the other hand needs to work on there drill. The drums could of played a better, more lively beat. The pipers sound wonderful, but they also could have played a better tune.

Thank you for the comments.

As for the tunes, we chose to march to the performance with a couple of nice 2 part 4/4s to get everyone relaxed and ready to play. We saved the 'better tunes' for the 50 minute concert that we put on following our arrival at the Festival Theatre.

This is one of the highlights of the year for our non-competition community band.

Best regards,

Dave

Excellent combination. Two of my favorite tunes. What to you mean by better. Gardens and Lovat's Lament still send chills up my spine! :)

They are great tunes, and we played Gardens and Lord Lovat's again this year as we marched to the theatre.
