+ Huntingdonshire Concert Band

‘One of only 3 concert bands in Cambridgeshire and as such, enjoys very good audiences at the 10 concerts each year. Concert repertoire ranges in style from military marches, to film and musicals, to swing and big band jazz sounds, but also more challenging symphonic sounds, often only heard at orchestral concerts. The band was formed in 1973 at the request of former youth band members as there was no adult concert band in the area. The band founder, Laurie Hurst served as a musician with the RAF for 25 years. The band still play from many of his arrangements.’
