Let Us Entertain You

In 2008, the band spent two exhausting but enjoyable Sundays, the 8th and 15th June, recording the music for our latest CD. Comprising of many favourite numbers from the year’s concert programme, “Let Us Entertain You” will both excite and relax you with a variety of both modern pieces and some from a few decades back.

Our thanks as usual go to Roland Clarke from CRS for his services as recording engineer and to Benenden Hospital Trust for the use of their premises.

If you want to hear more ‘Let Us Entertain You’ is available on CD at £10.00.
