SNYSB and Royal Marines have an amazing concert! - Monday 23rd January 2012
From the Diss Mercury
Young musicians teamed up with professionals from the Royal Marines School of Music at the weekend for a special concert.
Twenty-six marines and three bandmasters from Portsmouth came to Diss for a weekend of rehearsals with the South Norfolk Youth Symphonic Band (SNYSB), which was followed by a concert at Diss Corn Hall on Sunday night.
Mike Booty, musical director of the youth band and ex-Royal Marine, said: “They get the opportunity to play alongside professional musicians and that is a tremendous benefit to them and it also helps the marines and bandmasters who are in training.”
