Featuring: Simone Rebello, marimba *; Captain Tom Griffin, Richard Sharp directors, Mark Heron, Xinjie Yang, Lauren Wasynczuk, Ann Miller, Phil Trudgeon conductors, The Band of HM Royal Marines Scotland, Students from the RNCM School of Wind, Brass & Percussion.

The only Royal Marines Band stationed north of Portsmouth is coming to the RNCM, and the RNCM students are joining them for a spectacular evening of music.  

A thoughtful first half featuring music by former student Fergal Carroll and Royal Marine composers Hannah Tridgeon and Paul Saggers is the perfect foil to a second half which kicks off with a new March performed by the Corps of Drums and a jovial finish which includes John Adams’ Lollaplooza, inspired by the rhythm of the word itself.
