Last night of the Proms concert
Parish hall, Dinas Powys
- Wednesday November 16th

Despite the wet weather The Vale of Glamorgan Band’s "Last night of the Proms" was well attended and received.

The big disappointment was that Justine Platt, the soprano soloist for the evening, was unable to attend.

The band presented a well balanced programme including "March from William Tell",  "Spring", "Nimrod", "Fantasia on British Sea Songs" and "Thunder and Lightning Polka".

They also played  "Deep inside the sacred temple" from the "Pearl Fishers" by Bizet featuring Tony Williams and Dr Haydn Jones in a Euphonium duet.

The audience joined in the traditional Last Night items including "Jerusalem" and "Land of Hope and Glory".
