FREE Friday Concert

Thames Music Group from Thames Music Group

THAMES CITIZENS' BAND - if you love band music here's a date for you

Thames Citizens’ Band, now 153 years old, with talented local musicians, emerges from the constraints of Covid 19 to present a programme of band music for the thrill and enjoyment of our local audiences.
"Playing blown instruments with a mask on is impossible however" conductor Linden Moyle says "As always, TCB does what it can with what it has – tolerant and supportive people".

This year the theme of our concert is “Inclusiveness”. Every piece is of a different genre, time, style & instrumentation and includes, amongst other items, a fly, a wordless song, some improvising & a few pleasant surprises: something for everyone and every one worth hearing.

St Georges Church Friday 28th October at 12.15pm - 1pm
Enjoy Hot Soup and a bun after for $5.
This will be TMG's last free concert for 2022.
