Summer 2023

Band members enjoyed playing at a variety of engagements during the summer months. The first outdoor concert of the year was at Beamish Open Air Museum on a beautiful spring afternoon. Pieces were played appropriate to the era including some tunes that are perhaps not played so much in the 21st century! The Foresters Parade at Carlton in Coverdale was also on a beautiful sunny June day. The band marched through the village, accompanied the hymns at the church service and played a short concert in the afternoon. The band also played at the Aldborough and Boroughbridge Show, Borrowby Show and twice on Saltburn Bandstand. Masham Sheep Fair took place at the end of September, when the band marched through the streets and then played a concert in the market square, surrounded by pens of sheep!
