We are delighted to present Hitchin Band’s CD. The CD was recorded to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the formation of the band.
The CD is called “Because” after an arrangement of a song specially commissioned for Hitchin Band’s Solo Horn player, Sarah Gibbons.
The CD features a range of music that spans the years from 1866 up to date and shows off the talents of four of the band’s soloists.
It also includes an 8 page booklet with information and photographs about the history of the band.
The CD is available to buy for ten pounds at our events. Alternatively we can send one by post for an additional two pounds to cover P&P costs.
For more details, please send an email to secretary@hitchinband.co.uk
