Things you don't expect to see or hear at a band practice!! (28 July 2010)
Conducting for beginners – Martin (our conductor) learning a few handy hints from Jane (you're never to old to stop learning).
The other week Martin told us a long story about how he once appears on the TV show “I'd do anything” hosted by Ian Wright. He had secretly entered his Dad for a surprise, but in order for this to happen, Martin had to agree “to do anything”. In order for his Dad to conduct an orchestra, Martin had to be a Chippendale for a night, and perform with them in front of a theatre full of screaming women, (including doing the Full Monty!!). Did he do it, well his Dad conducted the orchestra, and Martin offered the video to anyone who wanted to watch it!! (No thanks!!)

A Grand Donation (6 April 2010)
The band has recently been the benefactor of a very generous donation from a former resident of Moulton Village. Five clubs and organisations from the village each received £1,000 and was presented to the band at a recent Moulton Parish Council meeting. The donators generosity came from their proud memories of Moulton Silver Band marching in the village at festival time after the second world war. The money which is both unexpected and needed, will be used wisely by the band allowing it to continue to represent Moulton in the years to come. Our grateful thanks to the donator and the village Parish Council.
